Murder in Vail - Paperback

by Dean C. Ferraro (Author)

For two decades, a secret mystery has lingered over the quaint mountain oasis of Frisco, Colorado like a dark stormy cloud before an epic blizzard. A treasure of gold worth millions. Does it truly exist? Or is it a myth, embellished over time?

Deputy District Attorney Joshua Rizzetti and his girlfriend arrive in Colorado for a much-needed vacation. Fresh off the heels of narrowly escaping murder, relaxation and recreational skiing is the perfect prescription to distance their recent knock on death's door. But after only a couple of days of leisurely bliss, their peaceful travels take a deadly turn.

Unwittingly, Josh and Kristen find themselves entrenched in a decades-long treasure hunt that's left nothing but mystery on its backtrail. Proving itself more difficult than a double black diamond run, the golden riddle becomes a murderous slope, bombing downhill at breakneck speed. All in a seemingly endless search for a golden treasure-a prize that may be nothing more than a hoax.

Only by swiftly deciphering a cryptic message can Joshua prevent his dream vacation from becoming his worst nightmare. Will he solve it in time, or crash in a fatal wipeout?
