Ten Snowy Day Book Covers

I don't know about where you live, but in my part of the country we've seen very little snow on the ground this winter. We've seen flurries a-plenty, sometimes for hours at a time, but it just does't stick. We'd like at least one really good snowfall before winter is over! However, just because there's no snow here doesn't mean there aren't books with beautiful snowy covers and fun snowfall scenes. If you need a little more snow in your life, maybe take a peek at some of these. ❄❄❄

"The Bridge to Belle Island" by Julie Klassen

 


After taking time away from her staple Regency mysteries to write her charming English village series, Julie Klassen is back with an old fashioned whodunit. When a lawyer is poisoned in his home, many people fall under suspicion. The arsenic-laced wine came from Belle Island, home of reclusive Isabelle Wilder. She claims she hasn't left her island in ten years, but how did she have such a vivid dream of the lawyer's London home on the night he died?

Fresh off a humiliating court case in which he was hoodwinked by a woman's false claims, lawyer Benjamin Booker is sent out of town to help investigate his senior partner's death. He doesn't expect to find Miss Wilder so young, attractive, or compassionate, and he hardens his heart from repeating the same mistake twice. How did Miss Wilder's wine end up at the dead man's house? Did she poison him or does she know who did? Why won't she leave the small island she calls home?

I enjoyed the characters of both Benjamin and Isabelle. They each had complicated histories which informed their decisions and relationships. There are plenty of characters and many strange circumstances surrounding the night of Mr. Norris's murder, which will keep readers guessing until the final reveal. Would highly recommend for fans of historical mysteries!

I received my copy of the book from the publisher. All opinions in this review are my own.
