Jan Whitlock, the young investigative reporter in "The Mystery at Seymour Lake Lodge" continues to search for an answer to the gnawing hunger inside her soul. She returns to the area of Vermont where she grew up, and there in Shady Rill, in the shadow of Hunger Mountain, she is challenged in ways she never expected. With threats to her business success, her most important relationships, and even her life, Jan must discover and believe in her inherent inner strength and wisdom. Her passion for discovery and her need for connection with writers, artists and musicians drive her to build and sustain a life where creativity can flourish and where she can be fully herself yet still have room for a romantic partner. The author tempts you to escape into the back woods of Central Vermont in the Worcester Mountain Range, where beavers and rattlesnakes are protected from poachers, and where serendipity awaits at every turn of the trail.
