Enjoyed the setting- deep woods by a lake in northern Wisconsin in winter, constant snowstorms and waist deep snow.Easy read, but I found myself skimming at times, impatient with the volume of speculative conversation between 2 best friends as they tried to investigate a murder,and prove that husband & a friend was charged with the crime.Some of the risky things they did(breaking into houses, etc.) as they investigated seemed unrealistic to me.
