"No matter whom you may suspect of the murder with which this story opens, the odds are that he or she will be dead before the end of the book. One after another the members of the Lanard household die violent deaths in their island home in the Adirondacks. No police are at hand to ferret out the murderer, for a wintry gale has cut off all communication with the mainland . . . . an entertaining and absorbing yarn."--New York Times Book Review
