On a spring vacation a few years ago, a freak snowstorm upset my holiday plan. But before the snow had melted, I was involved in a murder. The local sheriff brought me to a spot where a man named Swain had been found dead. When the body was removed, I examined the flattened pattern of the snow and then asked if the sheriff had any ideas. He said he was sure Swain had been attacked by a vagrant of some sort and attempted robbery while Swain was walking home. "I think you'd better see if Swain had enemies", I said. "This murder was planned". I'll tell you how I knew. In the case of the freak freeze, he recalled there was a flattened pattern of snow under the body. Body heat would have melted light snow. Swain had been murdered elsewhere and placed at the scene. A cool idea for murder that didn't work.
