This was a lively and fast-paced story as the chapters swtich to different characters to reveal bits of what’s going on and kept things interesting. This was a fun and entertaining story for holiday reading. ( )

Mary Higgins Clark's daughter is well on her way to following in her mother's footsteps.

FROM AMAZON: It's Christmas week in Aspen, and the beautiful are out partying by day on the magnificent slopes of Aspen, by night at whatever exclusive holiday fate is on tap.

It ends up being a busman's holiday for Regan, who gets swept up in art theft intrigue after some multimillion-dollar paintings are stolen from her parent's friends. The thieves continue to elude capture, but Regan is on their trail.

This was an enjoyable read. I did feel that there were too many unnecessary secondary characters who muddied the waters. The action and dialogue were fast. ( )

A good easy read. We are taken into the world of Reagan Reilly and her family who hob-knob with the rich and famous, which is why these friends are targeted by art thieves. Once again, Reagan finds herself in peril but will she manage to save the day? ( )

I forgot all about this series. I haven't read one of the Regan Reilly mysteries in years. Iced was located in Aspen just around the Christmas Holiday.

Some paintings are stolen and one of the help is suspected of orchestrating the theft. He is missing and everyone assumes he left town.

Regan doesn't believe that the person who everyone suspects actually heisted the paintings because of certain things that she notices, such as; freezing food, not taking all his belongings, just little things like that.

I loved the ending and even laughed while reading the book. I am glad I read this book. ( )
