A woman hiking the shoreline of Lake Superior fears she's having a
heart attack and gives an exquisite necklace to a good Samaritan
who comes to her aid. "Don't tell a soul," she warns, "except Molly
Berg." When the woman is brutally murdered, the young female hiker
becomes a target for death and must run for her life. Why would
someone kill a loving grandmother on a beautiful summer day? How
does that crime connect to the New Year's Day disappearance of the
woman who designed the necklace? What about the designer's husband
who vanished the same day? And how does it all link to a 1984
murder in Minnesota's Scott County? When Laura Kjelstad begins
connecting the dots of the crimes, she becomes the next target. The
necklace leads her to Sedona, Arizona, where she uncovers dark
secrets and corruption on a global level. Only a handful of people
know that she's gone to Arizona, but a friend who accompanied her
is kidnapped in Prescott and is terrorized on a harrowing trip down
the mountain to Camp Verde. Someone knows the answers and has
turned his sights on Laura. A young widow, Laura is the first woman
mayor of a small town in northern Minnesota. In the midst of a
blistering reelection campaign, her opponents deal in hostility,
misinformation, and outright lies. Her rival calls out the Internet
trolls to defeat her, but Laura leaned from her Norwegian
grandparents how to deal with trolls. Peterson deftly handles both
pacing and plotting and ties the subplots together superbly. The
reader is rewarded with a genuine understanding of the strongly
drawn characters and gains insights into the real life of small
town politics in all its decency and ugliness. The book is balanced
with a bit of romance and gentle humor that enriches the novel.
