Winter at the Door

A Lizzie Snow Mystery, Book 1

By: Sarah Graves

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

Moving from Boston to remote Bearkill, Maine, isn't homicide cop Lizzie Snow's idea of a step up. But breaking away from tragedy and personal betrayal is at least a step in the right direction. Her dead sister's fate still torments her, as does her long-missing niece's disappearance. The town is full of people who see everything, say little, and know more than they'll share with an outsider. The only exceptions are the handsome state cop who once badly broke Lizzie's heart and desperately wants another chance - sheriff Cody Chevrier. A rash of freak accidents and suicides has left a string of dead men - all former local cops. Now the same cruel eyes that watched them die are on Lizzie....

Pretty Good Start

This is a pretty good start to a new series. Sarah Graves created an interesting world in Bearkill Maine. Lizzie Snow is a interesting character and I look forward to reading more about her and the other characters.

Better than average Mystery/Thriller

This is a better than average read/listen. The main character is dimensional and interesting and the story itself rarely lags, as some do. There is a bit of repetitive character motivation but for a first book in a series, this may have been purposeful so we get to know what's behind Lizzie Snow's drive. The narrator does an excellent job. worth the credit to listen.

Fast paced. Great story.

Loved the story. It held my attention and the plot flowed well. It had all my favorite components: police, solving mysteries, side plots, etc. All but 1 problem is solved or left possibilities.

Couldn’t put it down

Although I do enjoy more romance in my reading, the tiny bit in this was ok. The story line was a bit busy but it was interesting and easy to follow. Great narration, likable characters and kept me wanting to find out what happens next! I will definitely try another of Sarah Graves books.

Lizzie Snow series - not a fan

I preferred the Jake and Ellie Death by Chocolate series and the first series with the house makeover.
This book has all new characters and different location w Lizzie Snow. Made it to chapter 10.
Just could not keep my interest.
Could have been the narration.
