This book kicks off a charming cozy mystery series set in an ice cream shop—with a fabulous cast of quirky characters. Recent MBA grad Bronwyn Crewse has just taken over her family's ice cream shop in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, and she's going back to basics. Win is renovating Crewse Creamery to restore its former glory, and filling the menu with delicious, homemade ice cream flavors—many from her grandmother’s original recipes. But unexpected construction delays mean she misses the summer season, and the shop has a literal cold opening: the day she opens her doors an early first snow descends on the village and keeps the customers away. To make matters worse, that evening, Win finds a body in the snow, and it turns out the dead man was a grifter with an old feud with the Crewse family. Soon, Win’s father is implicated in his death. It's not easy to juggle a new-to-her business while solving a crime, but Win is determined to do it. With the help of her quirky best friends and her tight-knit family, she'll catch the ice cold killer before she has a meltdown...

Investigative reporter Dana Sloan has gone undercover at an upscale retirement home to look into the suspicious death of Leona Rosetti, a retired reporter. Shortly before she died, Leona had called the newspaper claiming to have uncovered a sensational story. Working as the evening receptionist at Peaceful Pines, Dana has an opportunity to question the staff and the senior citizens who live there. Along with their offbeat humor, the elderly residents provide Dana with several clues that suggest the recent murder of a wealthy politician's wife and a bizarre string of serial killings are somehow connected to Leona's death. Before long, Dana's investigation puts her own life in jeopardy and causes serious conflicts in her relationship with homicide detective Al Bruno.
