Nancy Pickard's The Virgin of Small Plains
So this was a sort of mystery about a young woman who was found naked and dead in a snowstorm in the 1980s by a teenage boy, his brother, and his father. Her mysterious death and her lack of identity haunt the town, who come to believe she can perform miracles. Meanwhile, yet another teenage boy, who left town the day after she was found, has returned after almost 18 years. What will his high-school sweetheart thing? Will the mysterious girl's death ever be solved? What were all their parents covering up?!?!??? Anyway, I liked the way the mystery wrapped up, but the book's ending was more than a little sappy. B.

i'm glad you liked this one better than speak softly. the mystery wrap-up was nice, but yeah, the very end was so sugary and predictable.
