Sure to enchant fans of Garrison Keillor's Lake Wobegone tales, the
second Mitten State Mystery by veteran television writer M.V. Byrne
finds senior sleuth and Jill-of-all-trades Isabel Puddles investigating
a deadly mystery among Rust Belt royalty in the cozy town of Gull
Harbor, Michigan...
"Too late" isn't a factor for Isabel Puddles--until the clock starts
ticking on a deadly mystery in the cozy town of Gull Harbor,
Michigan...
Isabel is living life on her terms as summer stirs the peaceful shores
of Lake Michigan. Only slowing down to meet her oldest friend for daily
coffee, the newly licensed PI has found herself chipping away at the
college degree she never completed--and, to her surprise, eagerly
awaiting letters from her pen pal, an admired British mystery writer.
But when her latest client turns out to be an extravagant recluse who's
rich both in secrets and money, Isabel becomes embroiled in the strange
world of Rust Belt royalty and the Memorial Day Weekend disappearance of
a handsome young heir.
Beyond the famous family name and ugly rumors surrounding her, Abigail
Bachmeier is an enigma. With one great nephew presumed dead after
vanishing off the side of a ferry, Abigail makes the strange request to
locate another missing relative. As Isabel investigates and gets closer
to revealing at least one more possible murder, she begins to suspect
yet another life could soon be in terrible danger--her own.
