The Alpine Yeoman (Emma Lord)

Mary Daheimâ€™s bestselling novels, set in Alpine, a picturesque village tucked away in the Cascade Mountains, have charmed a generation of mystery lovers with suspenseful tales of the peril that bubbles up from below the serene surface of small-town life.
Â
An ill wind blows through Alpine, but Advocate publisher Emma Lord and Sheriff Milo Dodge seem immune to the prevailing angst. The newlywedsâ€™ domestic idyll is most definitely over when a dead man is discovered near the fish hatchery and nobody has a clue as to his identity. Vida Runkel may have insight, but Emmaâ€™s redoubtable House & Home editor is mad at the world and saying little. Moreover, whispers of scandal travel through the quaint streets when some high school girls mysteriously take a walk on the wild side. And then Miloâ€™s dedicated deputy, Sam Heppner, a true yeoman, suddenly goes AWOL.
Â
Whatâ€™s happening in Alpine? If Milo knows, heâ€™s not telling Emma. And Emmaâ€™s again headed for trouble when she starts snooping. The situation grows even more fraught when a shocking link is revealed between the mystery corpse and one of Alpineâ€™s own, unearthing a long-buried dark secret. Tongues are wagging on Front Streetâ€”and the gossip contains an air of menace. Meanwhile, Mary Daheim has written her best book yet.
