Swept up in the mystery of Madeleine’s life and death, Claudia soon realizes that the professor left behind more questions than answers, and no shortage of suspects. After the police chief persuades her to inspect a newly produced, handwritten will, an impending blizzard forces Claudia to seek refuge in the professor’s isolated house. There, she becomes trapped with a killer.
