Publisher's summary

Mystery thrived while the twenties roared.

1921-- The War is over, alcohol is proscribed and women have the vote. Jane Blackthorn should be happy but the holidays are looming and the young widow has no desire to spend them with her matchmaking family. An invitation from an old college friend arrives to save her. The college ski club is having a reunion at a hunting lodge in Canada and Jane decides that some clean living in the great outdoors is just what she needs. But it is apparent from the moment of her arrival that something is very wrong at the Beauvert Ski Lodge and she is shocked to discover that one of her old classmates is dead in a suspicious accident. Trapped by a blizzard, they are at the mercy of a killer that no one else believes in and it is left to Jane to save the day.

"Death in a High Place" is the first installment in the Jane Blackthorn Cozy Mystery Series.
