Night Falls in the Gorge: a Pacific Northwest Mystery Myrna Daly 1.º edición

In "Night Falls in the Gorge," a travel group meets at a small lodge in the Columbia River Gorge for five days of "soft adventure." Their hiking trail is closed and plans are derailed when a lone woman makes a dramatic entrance on the first night. Four people recognize her, and two of them turn white. The next morning her body is found at the base of a waterfall. The story's protagonist is an outsider, a freelance writer who's there to gather material for a magazine article on Cougar Lodge and its young chef. Convinced that both police and popular opinion are targeting an innocent suspect, she begins an investigation that takes her into a world of loss and betrayal. The story appeals to travel and mystery fans, and especially readers who enjoy a character-driven novel with a deep sense of place.
