Marielle Jones has been hired to drive 8-year-old Tyler, his 10-year-old sister and their maternal grandmother on a camping trip across Oregon. When Tyler claims someone pushed him into the river, Marielle refuses to believe him. But, later, the party is shot at, and Marielle realizes something scary is going on. Is it possible someone wants an eight-year-old kid dead? Why? In the musty, dank corridors of an historic old military fort, astonishing answers emerge.
This is a fast-paced, well-written cozy mystery that takes place in the Pacific Northwest. The author has done meticulous research on the sites mentioned in the book, has developed likeable, sympathetic characters, and has woven a page-turner story. I recommend this book.
