A Murder on the Mountain

Beschreibung

What's worse than being terrified of heights when you're a reporter for an adventure magazine? Witnessing a murder from the top of a cliff. Meg Reed thought landing a job at Northwest Extreme magazine was her lucky break--until she realized she'd have to actually venture outdoors. Determined to fake it till she makes it, she finds herself covering an adventure race in Oregon's stunning Columbia River Gorge. When one of the contestants plummets to their death from Angel's Rest summit, Meg is the only witness and she knows right away it was more than just a tragic accident. With her new job on the line and a killer on the loose, Meg must overcome her fears and put her investigative instincts to work. But as she uncovers secrets among the close-knit adventure racing community, armed only with her notebook, a strong mocha and the support of her best friends, she discovers that sometimes the most dangerous thing about the great outdoors might just be the people in it. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Pacific Northwest, this charming cozy mystery introduces an endearing amateur sleuth who learns that solving murders could be the one outdoor activity she's naturally good at. Perfect for fans of Tonya Kappes, Lauren Elliott and Laurie Gilmore. A Murder on the Mountain was previously published as Scene of the Climb.
