Iced - Carol Higgins Clark

Solving a crime at a ski resort can be all downhill! P.I. Regan Reilly has high hopes for her Aspen vacation--such as meeting an unmarried man! But a mystery soon has the chic detective snooping rather than skiing. Million-dollar paintings have been disappearing, and an old friend of Regan's--a folksy ex-con named Eben Bean--has vanished too. Everyone except Regan believes Eben has gone bad...again. Her hunt to find him leads away from the tourist crowd into the founding families of this former frontier town. She never expects to get in hot water with a wild and woolly seventy-something lady who has a shocking secret she'd die to keep. Or get in over her head trying to save a famous portrait a dangerous criminal would kill to steal. Now the snow is falling, the plot is thickening, and Regan may be learning a new winter sport--trying to catch a killer while running for her life
