An icy cold murder and a library patron collide in Holly Danver' s second Lakeside Library Mystery. A glowing wood stove, a cozy log cabin, and shelves full of books are all Rain Wilmot needs to ride out the Wisconsin winter, now that she' s made her family' s Lofty Pines library her year-round home. But the warm-hearted librarian' s blood runs cold when local man, Wallace Benson, is found dead during the annual Ice Fishing Jamboree. After Benson' s body is found in his ice shanty, Rain recalls that she recently saw the victim in her library, borrowing a few cookbooks to prepare for the fishing tournament' s communal "chili dump. " She later finds these same books returned to the library' s drop box, with an enigmatic note from Benson to Rain. As Rain seeks to understand the message, the prime suspect becomes Rain' s friend Nick, who was the last person to see Wallace alive and who returned to the Jamboree with a nasty cut on his hand. The knife found in his tackle box only makes Nick' s troubles worse. But Rain keeps fishing for other suspects. Was the killer Danny, who lost his arm to a logging accident involving Wallace? Or Danny' s bitter father, whose dreams of retirement were dashed by his son' s accident? With the help of her friends Julia and Jace, Rain sets out to hook the real culprit and clear Nick' s name. But can her sleuthing skills protect her from a killer who' d like to take her out of circulation?
