Rating: Summary: Fun and intruigue in the north woods Review: This book was excellent. The characters are even deeper and the settings are very realistic. While I'm reading the Loon Lake mysteries, I feel like I'm there, seeing everything first hand. Lew is my favourite character and i like the way that Ms Houston gives her insecurities and dooubts along with conviction and courage. Ray is more fun with each book and Doc osbourne's crush on Lew is very sweet. I hope there are many more Loon Lake books in the near future!

Rating: Summary: What Retired Dentists Get Into! Review: This fourth in the series proves that practice improves an already good series! As a past visitor to Rhinelander, WI and the Northwoods, Houston's stories are always interesting and accurately portray the little bergs in my state. As an avid mystery/suspense reader AND a registered dental hygienist in Green Bay, I appreciate Houston's knowledge of dentistry and enjoy her references to it in her books. The fly fishing quotes at the beginning of each chapter are great, as are her descriptions of fly fishing. I have lessons in my list of goals to accomplish just from reading her descriptions!She has managed to put contaminated streams from mining operations, Indian Gaming Casinos, etc., all issues in the local news, in her previous books in accurate detail. I loved the Fishing Tournament in this book, but hope she uses the Harley Rally again so she can develop that story line! I was one of six people privliged to have dinner with the author as the result of winning a contest in the Green Bay Press Gazette a couple of years ago. What a fun evening! Houston is even more interesting than her characters! I can't wait for the next one in the series to be published so I can tell all my patients about it, too!
