Winter Chill by Joanne Fluke


Winter Chill
Definitely not as exciting as I had hoped.

From the book - The moment Marian Larsen sees the patrol car stopped outside her house she feels a shiver of foreboding. the news is even worse than she feared. Marion’s husband and daughter has been in the snowmobile crash. Dan is paralyzed and Laura is dead...her body broken on the icy ground. Friends and colleagues in Marion’s Minnesota home town rally around to try and ease for grief. But soon there are more horrible accidents...

This book had an interesting premise, but there were several issues with it. The dialogue was simple and cheesy...the sheriff was generally unlikeable- always trying to grab the waitress’ butt...Laura’s parents spent most of the book feeling sorry for themselves...

Though the author tried to provide a couple of suspects, it was pretty apparent who it was. That was ok as the reader got to see the motivation of the killer. It was because of this, and despite the issues, that I gave this book the rating that I did.

Rating: 3 Stars
