What if the person you trust most is the reason everything is falling apart?

When London bookseller James meets Emma, a homeless student with a compatible mind and a guarded past, the attraction is instant — and dangerous. After a dreamlike Christmas in the glittering Swiss resort of St. Moritz, reality crashes in. James’s flat is burgled. Priceless antique books and family heirlooms vanish. And the police want to question him about the suspicious death of another homeless person.

As James and his sassy sleuthing friend Sally follow a trail of clues from the West End of London to the frozen Swiss Alps, the mystery deepens — and so do James’s doubts. Was he simply unlucky? Blinded by love? Or carefully drawn into a trap he never saw coming?

With every secret uncovered, trust becomes more dangerous than suspicion.

Will trying to save Emma cost James everything?
