Riddle

My first is second in line; I send shivers up your spine; not quite shining bright I glitter in the light.

Choose an answer

A.Frost
B.Snow
C.Sleet
D.Ice
Hint: It's a word with 3 letters, starting with "I".

Answer

Ice

Why this is the answer

Ice sends a chill up your spine on contact and glints and glitters rather than truly shining -- the "second in line" clue is a looser fit, though it hints at ice's letter I standing near the front of the alphabet.
