A Cold Day for Murder Leigh Mayberry

When Meghan Sheppard quits the FBI, she takes a job as the chief of police in a small town thirty-three miles above the Arctic Circle. She wants a simpler life, to find a place where she can take a breath, enjoy the serene magnitude of the last frontier, and perhaps see the northern lights. Living in an isolated northern village in rural Alaska is everything Meghan wanted. Being the chief of police means she can use the skills she learned as a special agent for the FBI and not have to worry about tracking serial killers, cybercriminals or terrorists. While being a cop in rural Alaska isn't a vacation, Meghan thinks she has put all her troubles behind her, including her troubled marriage. When a local waitress from the Midnight Sun Cafe is found dead in her apartment, Meghan realizes that while she thought life was going to be a lot easier, suddenly, things got much more complicated. It's one thing to chase a bad guy in the "real world," with everything available with a little extra help. But, when you're in a remote village on the tundra, you can't track bad guys without boots and a warm parka. Please Note: First Volume of the Lost in Alaska Mystery Series.
