Alice-Miranda and her friends are off to Switzerland to ski, sightsee,
and experience the unique White Turf racing event. St Moritz is as
glamorous as they expected and their hotel is beyond belief--as are its
owners, the overly friendly Otto Fanger and his frosty wife, Delphine
Doerflinger. Mid-holiday, the Baron, a close friend of Alice-Miranda's
family, reappears after being mysteriously uncontactable, and the group
head across the country to stay at the Grand Hotel Von Zwicky. The
resort town of Zermatt is full of charm, but underneath the picturesque
exterior are glimpses of shady dealings and unsavory characters. Can
Alice-Miranda work out who is involved in time to save the Baron's
beloved hotel?
