In the Bleak Midwinter (Clare Fergusson - Russ Van Alstyne Series, Book #1) by Julia Spencer-Fleming
The first in the acclaimed Russ Van Alstyne and Clare Fergusson series.
It's a cold, snowy December in the upstate New York town of Millers Kill, and newly ordained Clare Fergusson is on thin ice as the first female priest of its small Episcopal church. Chief of Police Russ Van Alstyne dismissed her as a naive do-gooder and her blunt manner, honed by ten years as an army pilot, receives a chilly reception. When a baby is abandoned and a young mother brutally murdered, Clare has to pick her way through the secrets and silence that shadow the town like the ever-present Adirondack mountains. As the days dwindle down and the attraction between the avowed priest and the married chief grows, Clare will need all her faith, tenacity, and courage to stand fast against a killer's icy heart.
