Publisher's Synopsis
Even with a left leg shattered by a drug dealer's bullet and a medical retirement from the Detroit Police Force, former homicide captain Ed McAvoy feels he's too young to be put out to pasture.With the slower pace in the Catskills, being Chief of Police in Peekamoose Heights will be sort of like running a country club, or so he thinks. After all, how much crime can there be?McAvoy soon discovers that his skills as a homicide detective will not atrophy from lack of use in Peekamoose Heights. Murder, as it turns out, is an equal-opportunity crime that not only resides in large bustling cities like Detroit, but in sleepy little Catskill villages like Peekamoose Heights as well.In Thin Ice, the sixth Ed McAvoy Mystery, the festive atmosphere of the annual Peekamoose Heights Winter Carnival is shattered by acts of vandalism on a food truck during the first night of the week-long fair, and accusations run rampant among rival vendors. But when three-time National Champion Dallas Conover is attacked and injured at the National Figure Skating pre-trials being held on Stuyvesant Pond and one of the mobile chefs is found shot to death, McAvoy must get to the bottom of things quickly before the food-fight turns even deadlier.
