- Synopsis
- Emma Passant’s earliest memory was of snow.... Emma had asked Jacques Passant about the big snow many times over the years. She must have dreamed it, he had replied in his gentle voice, or perhaps seen it in a movie. Apart from a few freakish dustings, it never snowed in San Francisco. And she had never been out of the city as a child, he said. But Emma knew her grandfather was wrong. She remembered. She remembered snow. Emma passant’s life has turned upside down. Her beloved grandfather has been killed in an apparent mugging in Golden Gate Park; her career as a magician is jeopardized when her brawny lug of an assistant runs off to marry an heiress; and then a handsome Frenchman Emma knew briefly is killed with the same gun used on her grandfather. When she realizes that a stranger has been in the home she shared with her grandfather, Emma moves out in a rush and determines to unravel the odd discrepancies that shadow the two deaths. Her quest for the truth takes her from San Francisco to the Caribbean, New York City, and Paris to discover the shocking secret behind the murders--and behind her elusive memory of snow. With charm and wit, Charles Mathes has produced a quirky, touching tale of a young woman whose search for the truth opens a window to her own soul.
