Being a Minnesotan, living just north of Pine County, this was such a fun read because I'm familiar with the area. It was a compelling story and kept me engaged right to the end. However, there were a ton of grammatical and spelling errors, and that was extremely distracting.

Book 3 in the series
A well written story. The plot has a lot of twists and turns to make it interesting. The characters are typical Minnesotans; reliable and responsible. A great read.
