Chass stumbles over a body in a blizzard--her music teacher! Having been on the run all her life from the man who murdered her father, Chass's mother suspects he has found them and wants to immediately leave town (again--they only just moved into this new place), but Chass is determined to solve the mystery of the murder rather than have to move again. This fast-paced, thrilling mystery will have you on the edge of your seat, and there are several "red herrings" that will have you guessing til the end. It's the third in a series, but there's enough backstory given that you can enjoy this one without having read the first two.

Whiteout is the third in the Hunted series by Walter Sorrells. Chass and her mother are still being hunted and have left San Francisco for Greenville, Minnesota. When Chass realizes that her mother has brought them to Kyle Van Epp's hometown to find out more about him, she begins to search for connections between Miss Hall, her murdered band teacher and the man she and her mother have been running from for most of Chass's life. Chass soon learns that Kyle has a brother who has been kept hidden most of his life, but does the mystery of Miss Hall's death have anything to do with that or is there some other force working behind the scenes? All of this takes place during a white out that almost becomes a character all on its own.
This story is written well enough to keep the attention of the reader, but Chass makes lots of illogical choices often with illogical results making the ending abrupt and frustrating. I'm almost glad there isn't another installment in this series.

Well-paced mystery/thriller. I'm disappointed that the blizzard--in which our main character wanders just about all day--doesn't give a more palpable sense of the cold and isolation. The cold could have been a character in its own right, and just ... wasn't. Which really diminished what could have been a great dramatic device. Alas.
