Northwoods Forest Mystery

About this ebook
Here it is - the first novel I wrote in 2003! And now it's available in eBook format! This is a family oriented (age 16 and up), faith-based mystery set in 1885 and 2005 which tells the story of a man unjustly convicted of a crime and the family and friends who help to rectify it 120 years later. And it is also a love story of great sadness, new joy and hope for the future.
This is the first book in a four-book series which follow the relationships of two families, their friends and relatives from 1885 up through the present as they encounter obstacles at every turn, having to surmount each one and triumph to move forward in their lives.
Northwoods Forest Mystery will have you in tears, laughing hysterically with the unusual characters presented and delighted with joy or overwhelmed at the sadness at the outcome. It establishes a base for the rest of the series, which moves to Ireland, the UK, Europe and back to the US and brings in some dark, phychotic characters, a criminal element, espionage and deceit. But no matter how deep these stories go, faith always seems to shine through. There is no sexual content in my books, but often outrageous characters, deep twisted plots and redemption.

I'm 67 (I'm old), an American from Iowa living in my old high school (which is now a senior apartment complex in Davenport) and was married to L.M. Cook who lived in Oldham, UK. We met on the Internet, married in England and were married for 16 years until his death in June 2013. We had no children, but have a rescue cat named Jade and my hobbies range from regional cooking to beading and plaster statuary restoration. There are a lot more interests, but there isn't room here!! I am a published author of four traditional novels (which are a series) and now an eBook author of six through Smashwords.com and I normally write in the mystery/crime category. A portion of the royalties from my ebooks (when I have gone into profitability) will be donated to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Rotary International to provide needed vaccines to poor countries, especially to combat Polio, which has now resurfaced globally. I had Polio at age four and a half and now have Post Polio Sequelae, which is why I became a writer. I was unable to continue in sales, so I used my background to become a published author at age 55. Although I am retired, I am a full-time author and manage to work in photography when I'm able. But now it is time to sell my work, create new books and my time has now been booked up for the next five years with lots of new projects. I thought retirement was supposed to give you free time? NOT.
