It's the end of March and Trafalgar, British Columbia is preparing for the last influx of skiers for the season.  Schools are closed for a week:  teachers, parents, and students are preparing to relax at home or head off on vacation.

But for Cathy Lindsay, the week of relaxation doesn't work out as planned when she's gunned down by a sniper on the hiking trail high above town, her small dog the only witness.

Cathy Lindsay: middle-age, middle-class, small town resident, high school English teacher, married mother of two. An unlikely candidate for a murderous ambush.  As Sergeant John Winters begins his investigation he finds himself frustrated at every turn.  Why would anyone want to kill Cathy? She was a respected teacher, in an apparently solid marriage to an Internet developer, living a quiet life.  Winters, with the help of young Constable Molly Smith, digs deep into the Lindsay marriage and friendships, searching for a motive, but one thought continually niggles at the back of his mind:  Is it possible this was a random killing or a case of mistaken identity?  And if so, who in the small, close-knit community might be next?

Meanwhile, on the double black diamond runs of the Blue Sky resort, Molly Smith meets a handsome, charming man, as good as skier as she is, and she realizes it's time to make some serious decisions about the direction of her  life - both personal and professional.
