Publisher's Synopsis
It's the coldest night Rowen can remember, but her family is taking it all in stride. The Greensmiths are a close family. They make the most of the nasty weather with a sleepover. A night of card games, toasted marshmallows, and movie marathons await them. What they don't know is that this will be their last night of peace for a while. Something worse than bad weather is coming to Lainswich. Rowen had never met her father until now. Desmond Trainer isn't the man she expected him to be. She isn't sure what she expected, but it certainly wasn't this man going to such great lengths to keep avoiding her. Is he afraid of confronting his past, or does it have something to do with the little old lady who passed away the night he rolled into town? It's a mystery Rowen will have to solve. And solving it means watching her family tree branch out in ways she never could have predicted. Eighteenth Volume of the Lainswich Witches Mystery Series. Approx. 50,000 words in length. It is a standalone (reading prior or future volumes not required to enjoy the book, no cliffhanger).
