Overview

A frozen fortune. A stranded ski team. A killer in the dark. Isabella ""Bella"" Rossi is completely out of her element. To claim the deed to a historic, isolated ski lodge left to her by a forgotten aunt, Bella and Maresciallo Matteo De Luca must travel high into the treacherous peaks of the Italian Alps and spend a week completely snowed in. But they aren't alone on the mountain. Just as a category-four blizzard seals the mountain pass, an elite Italian ski team crashes their SUV and demands shelter at the lodge. Tensions are running high-the team is plagued by gambling debts, bitter rivalries, and a ruthless manager, Lorenzo, who acts like he owns the place. During the first dinner, Lorenzo eats a spoonful of Aunt Carmela's famous Mascarpone dessert, collapses, and dies of cyanide poisoning. Moments later, the lodge's main generator is sabotaged, plunging the massive stone building into freezing, pitch-black darkness. Bella and Matteo quickly realize Lorenzo wasn't at the lodge by accident. He was hunting for a legendary fortune in blood diamonds hidden in the cellars during World War II. Now, the killer is using the blackout to tear the lodge apart in search of the treasure-and they are willing to eliminate anyone who gets in their way. Trapped in the freezing dark with a murderer, Bella and Matteo must navigate hidden smuggling tunnels, survive the plunging temperatures, and solve a deadly locked-room mystery before the cold claims them all. ""Murder & Mascarpone"" is the chilling sixth book in The Tuscan Vineyard Mysteries. Packed with atmospheric suspense, hidden passageways, and heart-pounding action, this cozy mystery proves that revenge is a dish best served ice cold.
