A former innkeeper with a taste for adventure, this author has pursued diverse experiences as a pilot, skydiver, and sailor. Extensive travels across North America and Europe fueled a second career as a freelance travel writer, during which she began crafting police procedural mysteries. Set in the rural landscapes of her southeastern Minnesota upbringing, her novels artfully juxtapose the gritty realities of police work with the serene beauty of the upper Midwest.
When Detective Sarah Burke is sent to an incident at Fairweather Farms senior living center, she makes a grisly discovery: the center's van driver was shot in the head during a car chase. But why was a kindly man targeted and killed so dramatically by a team of hoodlums? Sarah is forced to risk her career - and her life - in her search for answers.
