title: The Snow's Secret
author: Standish, Carole
description: When Patti's father must spend a year overseas, he sends Patti to stay with friends  who run the quaint Maple Valley Inn in Vermont. Pattie likes everything about the big, old inn -- except the shadowy third floor where her room is. Why does she get the creepy feeling she's being watch? Could it have something to do with the mystery of the inn? With its dark past? With the wealthy recluse who was once murdered there?
  
  Patti wants to solve the mystery with the help of Noel, who works at the inn. But Noel, sometimes friendly, sometimes silent, has mysteries of his own. As Patti and Noel work together -- and fall in love -- Patti learns Noel's secrets, and wonders if she can trust him at all…
