Under the Ice
It’s winter, and ice fishing is flourishing in Minnesota. When an ice fisherman gets a strike on his line, it’s not a typical catch. His discovery sends a quiet lake community into shock. What happened beneath the ice? Who knows more than they’ve said? How far will someone go to keep the truth submerged?
Carley Norgren, 34, and Mark Dolan, 46, have just reunited following a two-month separation. After the death of her father and loss of her love, Carley returned to Pelican Lake to regroup. She was recently hired as the head volleyball coach for State and as a marketing consultant for her former employer. Mark, an undercover FBI agent who focused on drug trafficking from Minnesota into North Dakota, was recently promoted to lead the Fargo branch office. Together with the Pelican Rapids chief of police, they work to unravel what happened on Lake Lida that cold day.
Under the Ice is the fourth book of the North Lakes Murder Mystery series, all set in northwestern Minnesota lakes country. Other titles include Murder at Pelican Lake, Cormorant in the Net, and The Man Three Cottages Down.
