13 different murders at lake resorts/cabins up in northern Minnesota? As a fellow Minnesotan, I thought it sounded like a fun read. Maybe if they didn't all have the EXACT, same setting, it would have been better. Most were too similar and predictable. It was an easy enough read to pick up every once in a while and read a story or two when I had time. I enjoyed The Locked Fish-cleaning House Murder by Jess Lourey, 14-A by Ellen Hart and Miss Behavin' by David Housewright the best.

When you read books like this you need to remember what you are walking into. These are not the Kings, Koontz or any other well known author name you want to fill in the blank with. These are lesser known. I read all but 1 of the 13 stories. There was one I just couldn't get into at all. None were spectacular, none of the 12 I finished were horrible. Surprising most were not predictable.

If I found another round a this type book would I read it? Maybe. This was in the little library in town. It was free, no loss for me. If I found another free I'd probably grab it.
