Snowblind

Title: Snowblind
Author: Matthew Costello and Neil Richards
Published: July 2014 by Bastei Entertainment
Format: Audio, Kindle Edition, 152 pages
Genre: Mystery
Series: Cherringham #8

First Sentence: Archy Flemming pushed at the branches in his way. What happened to the path I was on? he wondered.

From the Publisher: One of the worst blizzards in years hits Cherringham, cutting off the village from the rest of the world. Just outside of town, Broadmead Grange is a struggling retirement home, housed in a gothic mansion behind towering walls. One of the home's residents, poor old Archy, becomes Cherringham's latest victim after he loses himself amongst the snow drifts. Did Archy really just fall victim to the elements, or was there foul play involved? Jack and Sarah take on the case to dig up the truth. (Goodreads)

My Opinion: There is a certain warmth to this series that keeps drawing me back. Each short story brings clarity to the relationship between Jack and Sarah, their good-hearted inquisitive minds, and their commitment to the people of Cherrington. Do I know where each story will lead? No, and that is the best part. In a span of two hours, the reader or listener will travel different paths only to wind up where good prevails.
