Murder in the North Country

When a quiet Adirondack town is suddenly faced with the vicious stabbing death of two local women, the police have the job of tracking down the killer.

A native New Yorker, I look back to those early years when I would sit pen in hand in my place in our Old Town Canoe writing stories or poems at my leisure while my husband juggled his fishing line in one of the lush, mountain lakes we both loved so well. Time passed, and the mountains, moods, and invitations to adventure were challenged with expectation and promise. The years moved along to a quieter aspect of mountain life: a Schroon River camp at Lake Wakonda with the nightly crackle of a campfire blending in with shared reminiscent junkets to those rugged days of tenting on the Saranac Islands or our first bear encounter at Forked Lake . Whatever the memories, they are as alive today as they were in the days we lived them.
