Resort to Murder: Thirteen More Tales of Mystery
Resort to Murder: Thirteen More Tales of Mystery by Minnesota's Premier Writers
Resort to Murder, sequel to the highly successful Silence of the Loons, is an anthology of mystery stories set in Minnesota, written by Minnesota authors.
The resorts in this collection are fictional. However, readers familiar with those get-away destinations and the inevitable memories tied to them—of favorite family vacations, bittersweet love affairs, or soul-saving escapes from the mad crush of life—may find some striking similarities with actual resorts they know well. In fact, we invite speculation about the true location that inspired each story.
This is the perfect book to bring along when you take off for that week at the lake. If, while reading it late at night, you should hear phantom footsteps in the dark woods outside your cabin, remember that these tales are fiction, the product of fruitful imaginations. Still, you might want to keep a light on, just in case.
