    Now, twenty years later, a mysterious contest has brought Mindy Harris back to the area she thought she’d left behind forever. A seemingly innocent creative design firm shows up for a company retreat, but all goes awry when one of their own turns up dead. Was it an accident? Murder? And how does the unsolved mystery from twenty years ago play into it all? Death at Glacier Lake follows the revival of the traditional “whodunit” novel, led by authors such as Louise Penny, in this case with an amateur sleuth at the helm.

What are the limits of a human heart? How far will a person go for the ones they love? Pam Stucky is a new voice on the mystery scene; Death at Glacier Lake is her first novel in this genre. Pam is also the author of the Balky Point Adventures (MG/YA sci-fi adventure), the Wishing Rock series (novels with recipes; adult contemporary fiction), and the Pam on the Map series (travelogues).
