Angels in the Snow
Her fingers numb with cold, Jo rushes to search for footprints in the empty parking lot before they are covered in snow. Her cousin and her little daughter never came home tonight and she is desperate to find them. With temperatures dropping, no-one can survive outside for long…
When Detective Jo Fournier ’s cousin goes missing with her sweet five-year-old Alexia, Jo heads straight to where they were last seen. Her heart stops when she finds their unlocked car—one door has been left open and Alexia’s beloved teddy is lying in the snow. Jo’s blood runs cold as she realizes her family have been kidnapped…
Even as she swears to bring them home, Jo makes a discovery that chills her to the other young, single mothers have vanished with their little daughters just before Christmas.
As Jo’s team re-open the cold cases, they make a terrible discovery. Buried deep under the snow in the forest near Oakhurst are the bones of a mother and daughter who disappeared. The snowy grave contains a little angel, the kind you would hang on a Christmas tree.
With no sign of her cousin and little Alexia, Jo is sure that they are in the hands of a twisted serial killer and running out of time. Discovering suspicious activity in the security footage from the day her cousins were taken gives Jo the clue she’s been desperately searching for. Can Jo bring her family home safe, or has the killer lured her into a terrifying trap?

M.M. Chouinard
My first fiction story was published in my local paper when I was eight, and I fell in love with Agatha Christie novels not long after. The stories kept rattling around my skull while I pursued a Ph.D. in psychology and while I helped to found the first US research university of the new millennium, University of California, Merced. For sanity’s sake, I finally decided to release them.
When I’m not writing, I’m probably unleashing the visual side of my creativity: I love nail art and all types of paper crafts. Or, I might be working on my family genealogy; I recently managed to document one of my ancestral lines back to Charlemagne (a lineage that may or may not explain my passionate relationship with French cheeses—okay, with all cheese). I also love coffee, chocolate, bullet journaling, tarot cards, anything to do with Halloween or zombie apocalypses, and small doses of tomfoolery and shenanigans.
No matter what I’m doing, you’ll find me surrounded by my three cats and my dog—and my husband, who, in addition to being my biggest fan, technically keeps me from being a crazy cat lady.
