Abstract:
Everyone is leaving Hillside High School for the summer. The administrative staff leave on vacation and the offices are empty. Larry Wysocki takes his family to Disneyworld, Donovan Archer takes on some remodeling and yard work and Jon Burke is going to his cottage in Door County. But Burke doesn’t make it to his summer retreat, and a prolonged search reveals nothing. Weeks later a couple finds Burke staggering along the lakeshore, nearly dead, and incoherent. The question is: Who would do this and why? Bailey Welch, newly hired detective for the Door County Sheriff’s Department joins Dan Engler and Bill Sommers in trying to find out what happened to Burke. The case is made more difficult by Burke’s loss of memory and his inability to offer any assistance. Baileys Harbor may offer some answers to the case, but answers are hard to come by but Bailey Welch along with Engler and Sommers, work long days in solving the crimes.
