SMFS Member Publishing News: Wolf Bog: A Berkshire Hilltown Mystery by Leslie Wheeler


Today is publication day for Wolf Bog: A Berkshire Hilltown Mystery by Leslie Wheeler.  This is the latest entry in the Berkshire Hilltown Mystery Series. Published by Encircle Publications, the read is available in print and digital formats at the publisher, Amazon, and other vendors.

 

Synopsis:

It's August in the Berkshires, and the area is suffering from a terrible drought. As wetlands dry up, the perfectly-preserved body of a local young man, missing for forty years, is discovered in Wolf Bog by a group of hikers that includes Kathryn Stinson. Who was he and what was his relationship with close friend Charlotte Hinckley, also on the hike, that would make Charlotte become distraught and blame herself for his death? Kathryn's search for answers leads her to the discovery of fabulous parties held at the mansion up the hill from her rental house, where local teenagers, like the deceased, mingled with the offspring of the wealthy. Other questions dog the arrival of a woman claiming to be the daughter Charlotte gave up for adoption long ago. But is she really Charlotte's daughter? And if not, what's her game? Once again, Kathryn's quest for the truth puts her in grave danger.

Short Story Month: Leslie Wheeler

StoryADay.org proclaimed May International Short Story Month back in 2013. As the short story, in the mystery genre, is the reason why the Short Mystery Fiction Society exists, we join in the celebration each year. 


The SMFS spin on festivities is to highlight one or more members' online stories per day. Today, Leslie Wheeler shares “Chasing The Moon” archived at her site. The story originally appeared in the anthology, Day Of The Dark: Stories of The Eclipse, edited by Kaye George.
