Girl in Snow by
Danya Kukafka is the story of a murder in a Colorado small town. Lucinda Hayes
was a pretty and popular girl in the small town of Broomsville. She is found cover
in a light blanket of snow at the high school’s playground. Suspicions
immediately fly about who could have killed her and why. The story is told from
three perspectives: Cameron, a loner boy who watched Lucinda from afar, Jade,
the outcast girl, who secretly harbored hatred toward Lucinda and Russ, the
local detective assigned to the case. Cameron must fight the past as the town
has not forgotten what his father, a former local cop, did and subsequently
disappeared. Jade tries to befriend Cameron and help him with the scrutiny he’s
under as several fellow students accuse him of killing Lucinda. Russ, troubled
with the past as his former partner was Cameron’s father, must find the truth
among the accusations and innuendos. Who killed Lucinda Hayes?
Girl in Snow is an
excellent book. The gripping drama with past and present intertwined as the
mystery behind who killed this girl is revealed. I couldn’t put it down. I had
to finish it. I had to find out after all the twists and turns who killed
Lucinda Hayes! There are so many details that I cannot discuss as it will ruin
the reveal of the killer. The story gathers the usual suspects and as one by
one is cleared or you think they are, it leaves you with more and more
questions. Everyone has something to hide in this small town. I will say that
Ms. Kukafka writes a story so gripping that you are on the edge of your seat
from page one! I highly recommend Girl in
Snow!
