Publisher's summary
When her son says he and his fiancée want to marry "in the shadow of the Matterhorn", Dotsy Lamb doesn't realize it means she'll be staying in the same remote Swiss chalet as her ex-husband and his new wife. But rather than spoil the young ones' plans, Dotsy puts on a brave face and heads to Switzerland, determined to make the best of it.
Then the new wife turns up dead, and Dotsy is suspect number one. To make matters even worse, the police confiscate the passports of the house guests, so the members of the wedding party are now stuck living together.
With familial conflicts making life complicated inside the house, a glider from a nearby airstrip keeps flying overhead, while a shadowy Russian and a man in red shoes keep popping up. Fortunately, Dotsy's friend Marco, a high ranking Carabinieri official from Italy, arrives to help Dotsy find the real killer and free herself from this not-so-cozy mountain retreat.

It's a case that could earn Derek Mitchell even greater star power. When the Wheeler family approaches him about defending Creighton for his uncle's murder -- even before he's charged -- he jumps at the chance.

Story
Two words: the bullet. That's all it takes to shatter her life. Caroline Cashion is beautiful, intelligent, a professor of French literature. But in a split second, everything she's known is proved to be a lie. A single bullet, gracefully tapered at one end, is found lodged at the base of her skull. Caroline is stunned. It makes no sense: She has never been shot. She has no entry wound, no scar. Then, over the course of one awful evening, she learns the truth.

After the death of her adoptive mother, Ava Saunders comes upon a peculiar photograph, sealed and hidden away in a crawl space. The photo shows a shuttered, ramshackle house on top of a steep hill. On the back, a puzzling inscription: Destiny calls us. Ava is certain that it's a clue to her elusive past. Twenty-three years ago, she'd been found wrapped in a yellow blanket in the narthex of the Holy Saviour Catholic Church - and rescued - or so she'd been told. Her mother claimed there was no more to the story.

Is it golden or silver
Really had a hard time stopping from listening, every time I got time to listen. If it was read as a book, I would say a page turner. Love the characters, the story, and the teller. Can't wait to read more of Maria Hudgin's books, or get them o Audible!
