Early Snow

Odyssey Pruit paints pictures of the ghosts and spirits she saw in the halls of an old hotel where she worked ten years before. GUY HOGAN doesn't believe in ghosts. Hogan is hired to guard Odyssey's pictures for her first art show in the same old hotel. When an early blizzard closes the roads, knocks out the power and telephone, Hogan is trapped in the hotel with Odyssey's quirky fans. When imps and ghouls make their presence known, Hogan questions his doubts, and the answer could be murder. Trailridge checks all the boxes: a smart, likable, imperfect protagonist; an unusual crime; plenty of action; tough, clever bad guys, and a sexy blonde in a red Corvette! I loved every page.-ANNE HILLERMAN, AUTHOR OF LEAPHORN, CHEE AND MANUELITO MYSTERIES. TRAILRIDGE begins with the most pastoral scenes - a lone man fishing in a clear mountain stream. What could go wrong? Plenty. ..... Mountain locales are vividly and lyrically described, action scenes intense, and the suspense is downright harrowing.-ROUNDUP Magazine - Western Writers of America
