Minneapolitan Mira James has been taking it easy since college
graduation--too easy. Due to a dead-end job and a cheating boyfriend,
the Twin Cities have lost their charm, and Mira decides to begin a new
life in rural Battle Lake. Right away she is offered jobs as an
assistant librarian and part-time reporter, and falls into an unexpected
romance with a guy who seems to be the perfect man until he turns up
dead between the reference stacks her tenth day on the job.
Anxious
to learn more about the man who had briefly stolen her heart, Mira
delves into the hidden mysteries of Battle Lake, including a old land
deed with ancient Ojibwe secrets, an obscure octogenarian crowd with
freaky social lives, and a handful of thirty-something high school
buddies who hold bitter, decades-old grudges. Mira soon discovers that
unknown dangers are concealed under the polite exterior of this quirky
small town, and revenge is a tator-tot hot dish best served cold.
A
hip, humorous, and gripping account of small-town murder, this novel is
the first in a series of cozies featuring Mira James, an urban woman
with rural Minnesota roots.
