Murder in Lamut by Raymond E. Feist and Joel Rosenberg

This is book two of the Legends of the Riftwar.   The book follows three hire swords. Pirojil, Durine and Kethol are the three main characters.   They make an unlikely three Musketeers. 

In a murder in a locked room mystery, the three are deemed the only group with no skin in the game of thrones that is the root of two murders.  The entire cast of characters is snowed in, due to an unseasonable blizzard. 

Each of the three has a skill set that has united them in their vocation of swords for hire.   Although they are bonafide thugs, they have occasional flashes of ethical behavior.

There is very little in the book to connect this to the Riftwar series unless the subtle nuances of politics intrigues you.
