My partner in crime got a spiffy new Fitbit for Christmas and thought it would be a great idea, as a form of motivation, if we both had a daily competition for the most steps walked each day. Sounds like fun, so I went in search of my Fitbit. I am going to be honest with you. The little gadget is pretty cool, but I felt like it was always keeping track of me and nagging me. After a while it felt like a ten pound weight on my wrist and who was it to tell me what I should and shouldn’t do. I’m adult… I can do what I want! Anywho…. It’s charging right now, and what is the first thought that came to mind? Who can I put this on. Yes I was already trying to figure out how to cheat. I cheat on diets, what makes you think I wouldn’t cheat with exercise as well? Kitty is out of the question, he barely moves. My pup Jethro isn’t much better. I can’t put it on hubby or the baby bassets because they would tell on me. I might actually have to do this challenge.

Cold A Long Time: An Alpine Mystery
John Leake
4.5 Stars (153 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs | Health, Fitness & Dieting

FREE for a limited time

In August of 1989, Duncan MacPherson–a pro hockey player from Saskatoon, Canada–vanished without a trace in Europe. With no help from the police, his parents, Lynda and Bob, drove all over the Alps looking for him, and finally found his car at the Stubai Glacier, a popular ski resort near Innsbruck, Austria. Thus began their twenty-year struggle to discover why their son had disappeared after snowboarding on a beginner slope. Had he, as the local police suggested, wandered off the beaten track and died in a remote area, or had he been the victim of something sinister? In the course of their search, the MacPhersons encountered an extraordinary cast of characters, including a 5,000-year-old ice mummy, an amnesiac initially thought to be Duncan, a renowned psychic with a startling vision, a charismatic ski resort developer, and a deceptively friendly forensic doctor. In 2009 they asked author John Leake to help them with their ongoing search for answers, and after a two-year investigation, he discovered the shocking reality of what happened to Duncan. Cold a Long Time: An Alpine Mystery recounts the strange and agonizing odyssey of the MacPherson family. It is a story about tremendous love, perseverance, and the irrepressible desire to know the truth, literally at all costs. It is also the story of a twisted cover-up, committed by the ski resort, the local police, and high-ranking officials in Innsbruck. Leake’s findings are the subject of the television documentary “A Cold Case,” produced by the fifth estate–Canada’s premier investigative news program.
