The 2nd book in the Loon Lake Fishing Mystery series.
In this book retired dentist Paul Osborne is out muskie hunting when he discovers four dead bodies left frozen in a cage. Chief of Police Lew Ferris is called in and Paul and Lew have to untangle the mystery together.
A great follow up. I have never guessed who the killer is before the end in these books (Of course I never want to know which probably helps...). I really enjoy this series!

I'm starting to wonder how safe the community of Loon Lake is. Dead Creek is the third book I have read about these characters and it seems a rather violent place to live. But if you like fishing and hunting it's sounds great. I love the character Lew Ferris, I think the world needs more like her. Victoria Houston seems to know what she writes about and I love the setting in this series.

An enjoyable read. I got a bit confused at times with the dialogue but I'm not certain if that was the author's problem or the publisher's. I've already ordered the next one so maybe I'll have something more relevant to say after reading it.

As a Wisconsin native it was exhilarating to read about all the crazy things that happen in the north woods. The mystery was compelling, the character true to form, and the fishing metaphors so on point I couldn't help but smile. I would recommend this book as a great summer read, especially if you're looking for something with a little taste of the Wisconsin north woods.
