Clare Vengel hits the slopes in this sassy, sexy, fast-paced mystery A young snowboarder is found dead on the Blackcomb Glacier, and Whistler police want to close the case as suicide. The victim’s mother, a U.S. senator, says her daughter would not, and did not, kill herself. At her request, the FBI sends in an undercover agent Clare Vengel to find out who might have killed Sacha and why. Dropped into a world of partying with ski bums and snow bunnies, Clare soon discovers that Sacha was involved in an LSD smuggling ring. Worse: the top cop in Whistler is in cahoots with the smugglers, and Clare’s cover is too precarious for comfort. As suspicion snowballs, can Clare solve the case before she’s buried alive?

Review:

"A wildly fun, adrenalin-fueled ride. . . . This book is too much fun to be missed. I have only one request: More please. Soon!" —Angie Abdou, author The Bone Cage and The Canterbury Trail

"Clare Vengel is my kind of heroine. Sexy, sharp-tongued and smart as hell, she's a fully three-dimensional badass." —Owen Laukkanen, author, Criminal Enterprise and The Professionals

"I want to put a copy of Death's Last Run in the hands of every mountain lover, every snowboarder, every beer drinker, every crime fiction fan, every reader. This book is too much fun to be missed, by anyone." —The Fernie Fix magazine (February 2013)

"A believable tale of estrangement, love, lust, greed, power, and revenge." —Publishers Weekly (March 11, 2013)

“Robin Spano doesn’t pull any punches with Death’s Last Run; the book’s not only charming, it’s got swagger. Buy yourself a copy, and then strap on a helmet, because Death’s Last Run is a twisty, turny, mogul-filled ride from start to thrilling finish.” —Katrina Niidas Holm, Crimespree Magazine

“Death’s Last Run is breezy entertainment, and Clare is a heroine fun-loving enough to spend some time with.” —Sarah Weinman, National Post

"Death's Last Run totally lives up to its name. An engrossing, heart-pounding ride in Whistler's snowbound fast lane. This novel never lags and I raced right through to its satisfying and surprising end." —D. J. McIntosh, national bestselling author, The Witch of Babylon

“Death's Last Run is a joy ride dominated by the personality of the irrepressible Clare Vengel. Robin Spano has created a hell of plot that is populated by a wonderful cast of characters, and then dropped Clare into the middle of it all. She is a tough girl to get away from and to get out of your head - she is smart, gutsy and unconventional, but it is her touch of vulnerability that keeps you worrying about her well-being, and keeps you turning the pages.” —Ian Hamilton, author Ava Lee novels
