"When a late-spring snowstorm buries quaint little Provincetown at the very tip of Cape Cod and a body is found at the foot of the Pilgrim Monument, the police assume that miserly curmudgeon Edwin Snow II jumped to his death.

Thus begins her new avocation as amateur sleuth and her fortuitous meeting and eventual crime solving relationship with handsome Irish cop James Finneran."
