I really wanted to like this book...for me as a slow reader, it was hard for me to get through. Only because he is a very detailed writer. So much so that I forget what I'm reading about. That also makes the thriller part a slow burn in my experience. I wouldn't have finished it if I didn't win a giveaway of the ARC.

Glad I got it for Free
For the most, I enjoyed the story, but the dialogue bothered me throughout. It’s not the way people talk.
Sophia never called Garcia “Dad,” before in either book, and suddenly it gets thrown in. Inconsistent.
It wrapped up really fast in the last 10-20% of the book.
It reads like at least two people wrote it, and they have different ideas how people talk.
As an editor, writer, and book designer, the mishmash of curly quotes vs. straight and typos was very distracting. Could have been better.

A Very Wintry Mystery Thriller
The book, "Snowfall in Virginia", which is Book 2 of the Chris Hamilton series by Jim Davidson, initially presents a perfect life of success in the professional and personal aspects. These meant having his own business, own home, a girlfriend, Sophia, and a daughter. The story is set in Virginia and centers on C. Hamilton's past, which he thought he had also successfully tucked away, only to realize that it was fast catching up with him. The story has a good plot for uncovering secrets, action and adventure, death and karma, treasure and money, interesting characters, and a haunting past to present accountability. It's a perfect soup of chaos. The novel is an easy read with 23 chapters and only around 260 pages. It could have done better if the chapters had intriguing titles that matched each sub-story to build up the perfect storm that the author was aiming at. The chapters are also un-clickable, which means turning the pages if one wants to go back or jump to a chapter. The novel is nevertheless unique when the mysteries unfold only during snowfall in Virginia. Hence, the title. The scenes are carefully written and bring a reader into a moment and a snowy landscape. And because I'm a coffee lover, and I love absorbing the aroma and sipping the brew mindfully, the cafe settings are my favorites. Each character's story is intriguingly independent of the other's life, yet interwoven into the complexity of C. Hamilton's life and past. The author, having taken up various interests himself in real life, succeeded in creating authenticity in each character, but also could've developed each in a mysteriously deeper sense. The chapters I liked most are 2, 5, 7, 8, 12, 17 and 21. As autumn is taking its place in season now, this captivating wintry drama is good company. Whilst one may view a snowy landscape as plain and boring, the author succeeds as well, in creating the picturesque landscape through the talent and skill of storytelling. That shouldn't be a surprise, as the author had lived in Virginia, and readers can experience a satisfyingly good immersion in each setting.

Davidson delivers a story that is a little bit mystery and a little bit thriller, just in time for the holiday season. The main character, Chris Hamilton, finds himself in multiple tricky situations, where the idea of a normal, content life seems to be unraveling. To make matters worse, he is continually trying to determine who he can and cannot trust...everyone is not always as they seem. Davidson definitely plants many seeds of doubt to keep you guessing. While there is some "meat" to this story in the form of an interesting idea, I struggled with the flow of the book and the style of writing. It felt disconnected at times...jumping around and not always having enough background to connect parts of the story. I felt like certain characters could have used more development, so that as a reader, you can really immerse yourself and try to solve the mystery too. After all, that's the beauty of a great mystery! (rounding up to a 3)

The mystery continues….
Let’s dive in again into the world of Chris Hamilton, this time in Virginia. We’d witnessed what happened in Texas, deaths and hidden treasure. Does it ends there?
It’s not. The secrets came back to haunt Chris and mystery continues in Virginia, started with someone giving haikus. Yes, a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables. Fascinating, right?
The tension has kept me on my chair and did finish book in one sitting. I keep wondering about who the main culprit is. Kudos to the author for keeping me guess and unsure until the end. I also love the side characters, each with distinct and individual personalities.
This book is a must read, as there are twists that will pique your curiosity and will keep you on your seat.

The second Chris Hamilton book by Jim Davidson is set in Richmond, Virginia, and its environs, and it is full of interesting characters and exquisitely rendered settings.

As we strive to figure out who is giving Chris the enigmatic and unsettling haikus while they wreck havoc on his "perfect life," we're treated to a psychological thriller akin to a game of cat and mouse.

While drawing the reader into the compelling and passionate narratives, the author has a talent for making you feel a connection to the characters.

Jim Davidson's second Chris Hamilton story, this time set in Richmond, Virginia, and its environs, is quite a read. As Chris's ""perfect life"" is shattered by the strange and horrific haikus, we are treated to a cat-and-mouse, psychological thriller in which we strive to determine the identity of the sender. As to who might be sending them, Davidson keeps the readers guessing and second-thinking until the very end. The author has a talent for making you care and worry about the protagonists and immersing his readers in the gripping plots. I literally was!"
