Description
‘Help…!’ she shouted, but her voice disappeared into the blizzard.
‘Help monsieur… Someone has fallen…’
She looked down.
Ottavia lay at the foot of the cliff, not moving, her red jacket being softly obliterated by the relentless white flakes…
Did a champion skier really tumble to her death? And why had her boyfriend vanished?
France, 1931.
Chamoix is alive with the excitement of international ice hockey tournaments and a prestigious slalom race. But amid the frenzy of competition, ski instructor Marie-Laure is intent on finding the truth about a friend’s death, while dealing with an arrogant English family on a mission of their own. One mystery leads to another when she is entrusted with a dangerous secret.
A secret that someone will kill to discover.
A Russian Countess. Jewel thieves. Strange meetings. Spies. A conspiracy that reaches far beyond the ski slopes.
As Marie-Laure struggles to make sense of it all, she discovers that she is no longer simply investigating a murder.
She is now the target.
Downhill to Death is the second of the Marie-Laure mysteries set against the dramatic and atmospheric backdrop of the French Alps in the 1930s.
‘Alpine intrigue… with an engaging protagonist and twisty plot!’
Heather Critchlow
