Restaurateur and part-time P.I. Jane Lawless is taking some much-needed time off at her familys lodge when her best friend, Cordelia, arrives with news that Tess, one of their good friends, has taken a nasty fall and needs their help with rehearsals for a play that is set to open in a week. When Tess isnt on crutches, she helps run the Thunderhook Lodge, the premier resort on Lost Lake. And while she clearly needs Jane and Cordelias assistance, she isnt exactly acting all that grateful. A man who claims to be a journalist has arrived in Lost Lake with an old photograph and some questions for Tess that go back decades. His questions have put her on edge, and when he shows up peeking through her kitchen window, everyone else is right there with her. As beloved as Tess is, there are plenty of people who dont care about any so-called journalist and are happy to protect her, but how far are they willing to take it? And when will they need answers to questions that that only Tess can provide?In The Lost Women of Lost Lake--the most engrossing mystery yet from Lambda and Minnesota Book Award-winning author Ellen Hart--Janes only hope of protecting her friends from the secrets that are surfacing all around them is to uncover the whole truth before anyone else can.
