Introducing the Dave Cubiak Door County
Mysteries: smart, hard-edged detective fiction on a popular vacation peninsula,
a scenic wonderland surrounded by the pristine waters of Green Bay and Lake
Michigan
Six deaths mar the holiday mood as
summer vacationers enjoy Wisconsin’s beautiful Door County peninsula. Murders,
or bizarre accidents? Newly hired park ranger Dave Cubiak, a former Chicago
homicide detective, assumes the worst but refuses to get involved.
Grief-stricken and guilt-ridden over the loss of his wife and daughter, he’s
had enough of death.
Forced to confront the past, the morose
Cubiak moves beyond his own heartache and starts investigating, even as a
popular festival draws more people into possible danger. In a desperate search
for clues, Cubiak uncovers a tangled web of greed, betrayal, bitter rivalries,
and lost love beneath the peninsula’s travel-brochure veneer. Befriended by
several locals but unsure whom to trust or to suspect of murder, the one-time
cop tracks a clever killer.
In a setting of stunning natural beauty
and picturesque waterfront villages, Death
Stalks Door County introduces a new detective series, “The Dave Cubiak Door
County Mysteries.”
