Home Sweet Murder
Theresa M. Jarvela
A Tales of a Tenacious Housitter Mystery
Publisher: North Star Press
Baby-boomer Meggie Moore finds life in the small town of Pine Lake, Minnesota, a little too mundane even with her part-time job at a local gift shop owned by Vera Cunningham, a spry lady in her late 70s.
Always up for a challenge, Meggie accepts a housesitting position offered to her by an elderly gentleman. Walter, her husband of 30 years, objects since he had previously made her promise to give up this line of work after her first housesitting experience ended badly. Although not convinced that she will be safe at the house on Spirit Lake since there has been a rash of burglaries in the area, Walter reluctantly gives up trying to dissuade her from housesitting.
Meggie's outspoken friend and side-kick, Shirley Wright, labels Meggie as a nut who has lost touch with reality and vehemently argues that the housesitting job would be extremely dangerous under the circumstances. But when Meggie accepts the position, Shirley is one of the first to visit her at the house on the lake.
Numerous islands dot Spirit Lake and the largest of these is Camper's Island. Settling in on her first night, Meggie thinks she sees lights flickering near Camper's Island, but it isn't until she sees them for the second time that she becomes curious and wonders if they could somehow be connected to the burglaries.
Meggie's adventure at the lake takes a sinister turn when she, along with Shirley, stumble on a lake neighbor strangled to death. Meggie and Shirley become suspects in the murder and find it necessary to do some investigating in order to clear their names, but risk their own lives in the process.
