Dead Angler (Loon Lake Fishing Mystery Series #1)

by Victoria Houston

Overview

Whoever thought small-town retirement could be this dangerous?

Retired dentist Paul Osborne hasn't fly-fished since his wife died. He hasn't had a woman tell him what to do since then either. But in the company of Lewellyn Ferris, he's relearning both. And when he and his lady instructor find a well-dressed body floating in the moonlight, Paul adds "deputy" to his list of experiences...Whether the death is accidental—or accidentally on purpose—Lewellyn is determined to reel in the truth. She enlists Paul and his walleye-expert buddy, Ray, to help her get to the bottom of the murky mystery.

She has been featured in The Wall Street Journal and on National Public Radio.

Editorial Reviews

Although the identity of the killer may be a bit obvious to hard core mystery fans, Dead Angler is a delightful read. Lew Ferris is a fascinating character, but it is Paul Osborne who holds the reader's interest. We can't help but cheer him on as he exorcises his own demons to get a new grip on life.
