Only two suspense mysteries were written under the name of Ann Paris, this one featuring an American young woman who is invited by a notorious uncle to a house party of the rich and famous at his medieval chateau in France. Danger lurks as the party becomes isolated and snowbound--and guests keep disappearing. Crisp.
