Happy Fishing November 29, 2009
Ruth B. Ingram (East Texas, USA)
When you meet Lew the police chief and Dr. Osborne , a retired dentist who occasionally works as the assistant medical examiner in Loon Lake you know the day is set for murder and mayhem. A supposed drowning and a murder in town sets the scene for what turns out to be a double homocide investigation. There is a little misdirection and a lot of memorable characters including the part time -when we need him-deputy who has a record, and cops from neighboring towns who just don't want to seem to help. Just sit back and let Lew and the doc take care of business and have a very pleasant evening doing just so. And when they are done solving crimes the are out to the water fishing and giving tips on certain types of flies. Good Fishing

I so look forward to every new title in this series. I love the doc and the sheriff.And who could not love a 6'6" man with a trout on his head. these are a delightful quick read.
Vickie does it again August 24, 2007
Craig W. Olson (River Falls, WI)
Like her other books, this is great reading. It should appeal to fishermen, mystery addicts and folks who would like to just sit back, relax, and enjoy a fun book. If you like mysteries and would like a taste of northern Wisconsin, I'd suggest you start with her first book and read the series. You'll soon become an addict. Classic Vickie Houston !!!!!
I wish I didn't have to wait a year for the next one. I loved it !!!!
Thanks Vickie, you've given me much enjoyment again !!
A Series that Continues to Please July 20, 2007
Cindy Chow (Kaneohe, Hawaii)
A boater makes a gruesome discovery when his houseboat gets stuck on the body of a young girl who was last seen partying hard by night and working by day for the Chamber of Commerce. This, along with the bloody murder of a recent widow puts the kibosh on Doc Osborne's plans to relax and fish with his ladylove, Police Chief Lew Ferris. Deputized once again, Doc discovers the DeeDee Kurlander was a very ambitious woman with a harassment suit pending and the goal to become a trophy wife. Doc and Lew once again enlist Ray Pradt, an unlikely lothario with a penchant for wearing a stuffed fish on his cap who becomes enamored with a very attractive gun specialist.
Once again Ms. Houston fills her novel with quirky and entertaining characters who delight the reader and keep the humor flowing steadily until the gripping conclusion. There are enough twists and turns to keep the conclusion a surprise, yet the reader never feels tricked or misled. The strongest element of the Loon Lake Mystery series is Houston's creation of characters who are a delight to follow. New readers and long-time fans will find much to like in this novel, as Houston never fails to create novels full of wit, humor, and suspense.
