Book Description

July 1, 1995

Jane Jeffry, suburban sleuth extraordinare, and her friend, Detective Mel VanDyne, have braved a blizzard to join her friend Shelley at a Colorado ski resort. In spite of having all their kids along, Jane and Shelley imagine a few mindless days of relaxation. But their hopes are dashed on their first attempt to ski when Jane careens into a snowman that hides a very real -- and every dead -- body.

The slopes are littered with suspects -- a convention of genealogists led by a political fruitcake who thinks she's going to put her hand-picked Tsar on the Russian throne, a mysterious crimson-clad skier who's always on the horizon, and ex-stockbroker who's hiding from his investors, and an irate tribe of Native Americans. Jane has to take a census of the suspects and make some grave assumptions about who was vacationing with malicious intent.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is a great series., October 13, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: From Here to Paternity (Jane Jeffry Mysteries, No. 6) (Mass Market Paperback)
I have read all the books in this series and I find them wonderfully amusing. It's a quick, light-hearted read that puts a smile on your face and not a scare in your pants. I love this series and can't wait for more, more, more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Churchill again amuses with useful clues and painful puns., August 8, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: From Here to Paternity (Jane Jeffry Mysteries, No. 6) (Mass Market Paperback)
Jane Jeffrey applies her well-honed motherwit in this cheerful tale of multiple murder. While juggling her roles as parent, sweetheart, best friend and out-of-control bunny-skier, Jane finds time to discover two corpses, become a suspect, and expose several crimes, and their criminals while learning useful information about genealogical research.

4.0 out of 5 stars Reading with Tequila, January 5, 2010
This review is from: From Here to Paternity (Jane Jeffry Mysteries, No. 6) (Mass Market Paperback)
As all the Jane Jeffry mysteries are, From Here to Paternity is a light and fluffy mystery with lots of character interaction. Jane's neighbor invited her to visit a ski resort and share her opinion of whether it would be a good investment for the neighbor's husband. While there, Jane, as per usual, discovers a couple of bodies and sets off to discover the murderer with or without the help of detective boyfriend Mel. I liked the resort setting and appreciated the chance to see most of the characters outside of their normal, everyday situations. I was a little confused as to why Jane's opinion about investment property was important, but I guess you had to get her near the bodies somehow.
