Faith Fairchild's father-in-law plans to celebrate his seventieth birthday by treating the entire family - his children, their spouses, and his grandchildren - to a weeklong stay at the Pine Slopes ski resort. All starts well until Faith discovers a body on one of the cross-country trails. Then Pine Slopes' star chef vanishes without a trace and one catastrophe follows another: a malicious prank, a break-in at the Fairchilds' condo and the sabotage of one of the chairlifts. Who is the mysterious woman living deep in the woods and what are Faith's nephew, Scott, and Ophelia Stafford up to? Family secrets abound as Faith struggles to salvage the reunion, and save her own life.
