Synopsis

Father often asked Kirk Anthony to do a real job. But Anthony, despite almost idolizing his strong, successful father, just can’t stop having a good time with his father’s money. He goes to fancy dinners, drives the latest cars, and treats his friends to sumptuous meals. Then a man steps in trying to get away from the law. At dinner, he persuades one of Anthony’s drunken friends to „play a terrible joke on him.”

    Stewart "Hoagy" Hoag always swore that he would never return to Oakmont, Connecticut, the small mill town where his family lived for generations. He certainly has no desire to interrupt his high life as the newest great American novelist to revisit the town that hates his family and will only bring back memories of his unhappy childhood. But when his childhood sweetheart phones to say that her mother, Mary McKenna, the librarian who inspired Hoagy's dream to be a writer, has died, Hoagy knows he has to return for her funeral. Especially when Maggie adds that her mother didn't die of natural causes. 
     
     
     
    Determined to pay his respects to one of the few people in his hometown he truly cared for, Hoagy hops in his Jaguar and heads to Oakmont with his new girlfriend Merilee and even newer basset hound puppy Lulu in tow. The town where his family's brass mill once thrived is now a toxic, lead-poisoned ghost town. Hoagy is surprised to discover former classmate and bullying target, Pete Schlosski, has become the State Police Resident Trooper. But while Pete seems to have forgiven his past tormentors, he doesn't have any ideas as to which of them might be a killer. Hoagy, on the other hand, has learned plenty about the art of investigation from hours spent in the library, and his four-month-old puppy shows a surprising knack for tracking down clues . . .

    This far into my magical forty makeover, I thought I'd seen it all. That I knew it all. 
     
     
     
    Boy, was I wrong. 
     
     
     
    After I'd found my Elven grandfather, Laslow, and brought him back to the human world, I was convinced that my life was on the upswing. Things with Hunter were good. Gram's and mom were happy. And it seemed all the fires in my life had been put out. 
     
     
     
    I could've left well enough alone . . . but I still had lingering questions about the hate between the fae and the witches. They say knowing your history can give you the tools to shape your future. But when you creep into the past, you're bound to find things you don't like. 
     
     
     
    Especially with a past like mine. 
     
     
     
    I'd never belong anywhere as long as the two parts of me were enemies, so I decided it was time to completely shake things up and defeat the evil King Inueya of the fae world and reunite our lands. Go big or go home, right? 
     
     
     
    So now, here I am, spandex and all, in a completely foreign world while I attempt to find the true ruler of the land of the fae. If only I could go back and tell my thirty-nine year-old self what sort of craziness she was about to dive into.

    ❄️ Winter enthusiast and coffee shop owner Hazel Frost is hosting the annual Snowflake Festival in her cozy mountain town when a prominent local businessman is found impaled by a giant icicle outside her café. The police write it off as a tragic winter accident, but Hazel's sharp eyes catch details that suggest otherwise—the icicle was perfectly positioned to fall, and the victim had just threatened to sell half the town to a resort developer. With a blizzard trapping everyone in town, Hazel teams up with the handsome new meteorologist and her loyal golden retriever to investigate. Using her knowledge of winter weather patterns and small-town dynamics, she uncovers a web of frozen grudges and cold-hearted schemes. From sabotaged heating systems to mysterious footprints in the snow, every clue brings her closer to a killer who's as cold as the winter storm. But as the temperature plummets, Hazel realizes the killer is still among them—and the next victim might be left out in the cold permanently.
