Linnaea, my new novel for women, is nearly ready…
When Katharine’s mother disappears, she and her family move to the Gunflint Trail to manage Linnaea Lodge, her mother’s wilderness resort. A city girl, Katharine grits her teeth to endure mosquitoes, mice, bears, and her impossible teen. Meanwhile, she desperately searches for clues to her mother’s disappearance.
Katharine’s only retreat from the resort, her difficult daughter, and her controlling husband is an annual canoe trip into the boundary waters with women friends. These five women bond as they explore the wilderness and bolster each other through years of personal crises.
Between running the lodge and her annual canoe trips, Katharine overcomes her dependence on her husband and develops a love for the wilderness that once daunted her. She faces overwhelming challenges as she continues to wait for her mother’s return to the resort. After her husband’s conviction and a catastrophic storm, is another man the only way she can save Linnaea Lodge?
