Everyone has a secret... Someone attempted to kill Sylvia last Christmas, but she heard about the thrill-seeking murderers from Michigan and doesn't expect it to happen again. So far the couple have kept to their native state, and Sylvia has other concerns. Including the freezing, starving, and frightened cat in her garage. Her college professor/screenwriter lover who wants to marry her. She loves him, but her last marriage had ended badly, and she's not ready to try it again. Two couples snowed in at her bed-and-breakfast are giving her odd vibrations. Then there are Sylvia's past misdeeds....
