Vengeance in Vermont
The first in a new mystery series that combines the author's love of Vermont with the importance of family, community, and the creatures who share our world and enrich our lives.
Opening Moose on the Roof Books in Currier and Ives-quaint Vermont is a long-held dream for retirees Emma and George Nielsen. Little do they know their small town of Mill River is a hotbed of long-simmering animosities and tensions.
When they invite a local author to hold a series of talks on her book about death, they unwittingly set off a chain of events that lead to a sudden and ugly death on an oppressive summer evening.
The attendees, including the town’s trusted silver-haired pharmacist, the beloved and gentle veterinarian, and a young Appalachian herbalist, all have murderous intentions, motives, and means. Love and revenge permeate this small community.
In a Hitchcockian moment at the bookstore, the apparent killer is finally revealed, threatening the Nielsens’ lives and their livelihood.
Someone, however, is keeping a secret.

A very enjoyable quick read . I enjoyed connecting with all the characters. An interesting twist at the end.
My family and I visited Vermont often.
I am sorry, I could not attend meeting this author at our local library
As I live in Mattituck and also worked at Mattituck -Laurel library I was sad I couldn’t attend.
Look forward to the second book!
