Murder Goes A-Hunting (Annie Cooke Mysteries) (Volume 2)

Annie’s idea of heaven is delving into a good mystery, sitting next to a crackling fire, and listening to the wind howl like a wolf. That’s exactly what she gets, and much more, when she revamps her husband Fred’s yearly hunting trip, exchanging his leaky old tent for a room at the luxurious Fiddlehead Lodge. Set on a beautiful lonely island in the wilds of Alaska, the lodge offers gourmet food, great atmosphere, and wonderful, healing hot springs: the perfect recipe for a relaxing vacation “à deux.” But when the weather turns sour, and the guests and staff are confined to the lodge, Annie begins to wonder if they are under some dark influence that seems to be bringing out the worst in them. The wind-battered lodge begins to suffer malfunctions, someone plays cruel pranks, weapons are unaccounted for, and past histories of horror and revenge are painfully divulged. To get to the bottom of everything, Annie goes to work to find reasons behind the perverse and mysterious acts that are transforming what was supposed to be a carefree vacation into a stomach-churning nightmare.
