The Body in the Beaver Pond

Even an event planner doesn’t plan on murder. 

Keri Isles desperately wants to sell the Christmas Tree farm her cheating jerk of an ex convinced his buddy, the judge, to saddle her with in the divorce settlement. Stranded in the Cascade Mountains, she’s lost her Seattle-based job and local job prospects are as scarce as internet service. When she finds the arrogant professor in charge of the local archeology dig floating face down in her beaver pond, unloading the property becomes secondary to staying out of prison. 


A savvy—and scheming—attorney may be able to keep her head above water, but the personal price of his retainer may be too high. It’s up to Keri to use her mad networking skills and deploy a team of archaeology students, a bad boy photographer, and assorted eccentric neighbors to find the killer and clear her name.
