All is Clam by Hilary MacLeod, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

It's Christmas at The Shores. There's no snow yet, but there are so many outdoor lights that the tiny coastal village can be seen from space. Apart from Ian Simmons' place, and he's considered odd, there's only one house in the village that isn't lit up. It's been dark for years. That's about to change. Wild Rose Cottage is about to come to life, and death, once again. Meanwhile, the villagers wish for snow to complete the Christmas portrait. When it comes, it's with the body of newcomer, Fitz Fitsimmons, a former acrobat turned bully and drunk. Mountie Jane Jamieson has seen murder here before, but none where she'd rather not catch the killer. | All is Clam by Hilary MacLeod, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
