Mystery

Conservation Officer Charlie Meikle’s peaceful life in the wilderness of Northern Ontario is shattered when she find the body of an old friend face down in the lake. Jim Griffith’s death is ruled accidental, but to Charlie things don’t add up. A bizarre discovery in the old fisherman’s house leads Charlie to suspect he was murdered, but why? A desperate hunt for answers turns into a life and death struggle when Charlie stumbles across an illegal toxic waste dump that has the potential to destroy the lake and the town around it — and the financial backing of people influential and determined enough to destroy her.
