Dashing Through the Snowbirds follows Round up the Usual Peacocks as the thirty-second in Donna Andrews' thoroughly engaging cozy mystery series starring uber-organized Meg Langslow and her merry (and messy) train of family and friends.

Christmas is coming. Meg et al are hoping for a white one, but not everyone is in the spirit of the holiday. Rob's Mutant Wizards is doing a rush project for Caadian company AcerGen, whose unpleasant president (Ian Meredith) has dragged key managers and programmers to Caerphilly to meet a New Year deadline. Since he booked nothing in advance, Meg has had to put them all up - and worries about their morale.

Her many and varied attempts to improve it provide the episode's light relief, while Meredith's murder adds the usual mystery for Meg to solve. Of course, readers know she will get there, while they learn about genetics and forensic genealogy along the way to a white and welcome Christmas Day.
