No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Springtime in northern Michigan: a picture-perfect scene. Until struggling mystery writer Emily Kincaid gets a visit from her foul-weather friend Deputy Dolly, who frantically demands Emily's help. Sandy Lake's receding waters have revealed a bullet-pierced skull, along with a keepsake that could mean serious trouble for a man Dolly once loved.
As another set of bones surfaces, Emily finds herself wading through Dolly's painful past, digging into Leetsville's dark history, and dodging threats from an outraged Odawa Indian-who may be protecting more than just sacred land. Now, Emily and Dolly are deadset on solving the crime whether it breaks their hearts . . . or costs them their lives.

Emily Kincaid Mystery:
"Every woman who's ever struggled with saying no, fitting in, and balancing independence against loneliness will adore first-timer Emily."-Kirkus
In Buzzelli's enjoyable sequel to 2008's Dead Dancing Women, aspiring mystery novelist Emily Kincaid, who moved to rural northern Michigan to pursue her writing career, is making ends meet by contributing stories to the local newspaper. Among her fans is Deputy Dolly, of the Leetsville police department, who calls on Emily after receding lake waters reveal a human skeleton. Evidence links Dolly's former husband to the bones, and her loyalty to him leads her to rash action. The growing closeness between the two women is one of the book's strengths, as is Buzzelli's portrayal of the local Odawa tribe. Determined to be independent, Emily lets her loneliness lead her into making some poor decisions regarding her charming ex-husband. Despite too many extraneous details (There were dishes to scrape and pile into the dishwasher), the plot hangs together and builds to a satisfactory conclusion. (July)
