Treachery R T Lund

The serenity of an early morning hike near the shores of Lake Superior is horribly disrupted when a young couple discovers the naked, broken body of a woman in a rocky gorge at the bottom of Gooseberry Falls. It turns out the dead woman was a lawyer and the wife of a prominent federal judge twice her age. Her recent lawsuit against the Catholic Church has shaken the Twin Cities' Archdiocese and threatens to destroy everything the Archbishop has done to shield the Church and its assets. Was her death an accident or the first murder in Lake County in more than a decade? Sam MacDonald, the overqualified local sheriff, will need outside help to investigate the unusual circumstances of her demise. A wealthy Twin Cities' investment banker's clandestine relationship with the Archbishop is just one of many deceptions played on the fringes of a decades' old clergy abuse scandal, ultimately leading to a cascade of death, destruction and revenge.
