Destination Lake Tahoe

An avalanche is the least of Sam's problems.

On her third outing as a travel writer for "Carmel Today" magazine, former investigative reporter Samantha "Sam" Powers is invited to cover the reopening of the historic Lake Tahoe Mountain Lodge. The press trip has all the hallmarks of an amazing adventure, offering winter activities like skiing with a former Olympian, snowshoeing, dog sledding, and riding in a horse-drawn sleigh.

At the Lodge, a huge storm hits and guests start vanishing. As Sam begins to investigate the disappearances-with help from her best friend Lizzy-she stumbles into the culprit's sights. When she finds herself dangling off a mountain peak, Sam wonders if her nose for mystery may have taken her too far this time.

"Destination: Lake Tahoe" is the third in the Destination Murder Mystery series, which combines exotic locales and a behind-the-scenes look at the travel industry with the twists and turns expected from a good mystery.
