A detective led "who-done-it" novel about solving the crime of a mortician, being murdered at his own funeral home. It happens in a bad snow blizzard that has shut down the city and the clues are complicated. He has been shot by his own crossbow, a very unusual murder weapon, but that clue will leads to an archery club run by the local mega church and a wife who feels that her husband had been keeping something hidden from her.
The murder victim is very involved in the various committees at the local mega church and is very friendly with not only the minister but the counsellor, who is a psychiatrist. No one can think of anyone who would want to kill the victim who everyone seems to have loved and respected.
It is up to Detective Mccabe and her partner, Mike Baxter to sort through the evidence which seems in some way to be linked with another case and has a sexual component.
Quite complicated to read and not totally engaging but the answer to the murder comes as a total surprise.
