Bøger i A Lee Smith Mystery serien

Travel writer Lee Smith is halfway through her 7,000 kilometre cross-Canada road trip, enjoying the view from the top of The Sleeping Giant in Lake Superior, when she agrees to take a 500 kilometre detour north.  Despite its isolation, the fly-in Ojibway community of Webequie First Nation is having problems with the neighbours. Multiple mining companies are clamouring to tap into the $60 billion mineral field that envelopes Webequie. Even Lee''s significant other, Jack Hughes, is blasting gaping wounds in Mother Earth to increase the shine of the bottom line at Hughes Diamonds. A prospector has been shot - and his face has been carved. An elder is arrested by the Ontario Provincial Police, but the Nishnawbe-Aski Police Service officers in Webequie don''t think he did it. Visiting Texan hunters are shooting anything that moves. A little boy carefully hides the big shiny rock crystal that he found in the river. A little girl thinks she''s seen a ghost. An accredited Sasquatch researcher is thrashing around in the bush. While trying to find a killer who isn''t done yet, Lee stumbles on the rough edges in her relationship with Jack, gets almost as high as the dancing green shapes of the Wawatay in the night sky, crosses paths with a porcupine, and circumnavigates wolverine traps on the run of her life. The killer is hunting her. If she takes a wrong turn she''ll be heading down a path with No Return.

A text from her best friend, billionaire Jack Hughes, appears on her phone before her plane has even reached the gate in Toronto—Somebody tried to kill me.Even worse, it happened at Berkshire, the prestigious school where they first met.Twenty years earlier, Berkshire’s iron gates and thick walls may have kept Lee safe from the media frenzy resulting from her father’s sensational trial, but they also locked her into her own kind of prison. Despite the elaborate story she made up to hide her identity, her classmates found out who she really was and bullied her mercilessly. The emotional scars left behind still haven’t healed.Berkshire’s walls haven’t kept a current student safe, either. A seventeen year old girl has tumbled out of the Berkshire tower to her death—did she jump? Was she pushed?Lee would rather travel to any other place on the planet than return to Berkshire but Jack needs her help. And maybe the time has come to finally face her old demons. Braving Berkshire, Lee finds sex tapes, a blackmail scheme, and a murderer who’s only just getting started—and it looks like Lee could be next on the list.
