On a bitter winter evening in Sioux Lookout a woman is shot dead. Across the street, in the shadows, Chris Allard stands watching. At first Sergeant Miles of the OPP treats Chris as an annoying but innocent bystander. But when the identity of the victim is revealed Chris suddenly becomes the chief suspect. Desperate to prove his innocence, Chris sets out to discover the truth. It is a search that moves from the back streets of Toronto to a small cabin on Minnitaki Lake. Time is running out. For even as Chris pursues the killer, someone is stalking him. Minnitaki Lake Mystery is the second book in the Death in Sioux Lookout trilogy. It is preceded by Death in Sioux Lookout, and will be followed by the Vermilion River Murder.
