Secrets in the Snow: Early season stories from White Cairns Ski School (Volume 1)

The start of a new season at White Cairns Ski School in Scotland is normally an exciting time. But for co-owner Jude Winters, saddled with the sudden responsibility while her husband is away, it's chaos. As a mother, home-maker, and graphic artist, she has no experience of running a school.

Fortunately there are friends on hand to help, for the moment, but each of them has their own struggles. Wandering Kiwi Mike Cole has put his globe-hopping ski adventure on hold to help Jude get the school into shape, but he's still on the run from his past and feels the rest of the world calling. Seasoned instructor Fiona Easton is only just back to work after tragedy and faces challenges both up and down the slopes.

Juggling a disparate batch of new instructors learning to work together would be hard enough, if it weren't the least of their worries. Battling accidents, equipment shortfalls, and even sabotage, Jude and her friends take on one problem after another to keep the school going - and the season has only just begun.
