Winter Camping Caper: A Cozy Mystery of Murder, Secrets, and Survival in the Snow
Cozy Corner Mysteries Book 3 by Kathleen Guire
People bury secrets in the forest-and some will kill to keep them hidden.
Harper Devereaux never intended to brave the winter wilderness-but she did agree to bundle up and join Detective Dexter's campfires. A couple of hours by the fire, her trusty labradoodle Rory at her side, and a mug of cocoa in hand-that's about all the great outdoors she can handle.
But when retired forestry professor Elmer is found dead in his home, their snowy retreat takes a chilling turn. Elmer had passionately opposed the development threatening the cherished Christmas Tree Forest. Now, Harper suspects someone went to great lengths to shut him up-and she's determined to find out who.
As she digs deeper alongside the ever-steady Detective Dexter, Harper finds herself once again navigating a maze of small-town secrets, whispered threats, and unexpected dangers. And with every clue uncovered, the killer seems to be watching.
With trust fraying, danger closing in, and sparks flying between her and Dexter, Harper must decide if she's brave enough to step outside her comfort zone-before someone else ends up silenced for good.
Winter Camping Caper is a snow-dusted Christian cozy mystery full of forest intrigue, amateur sleuthing, a slow-burn romance, and an irresistible dog sidekick. Perfect for fans of clean fiction, small-town mysteries, reluctant heroines, and stories where love and justice can bloom-even in the frostiest conditions.
