Award-winning Wisconsin author Jeff Nania will be in town to celebrate the release of Musky Run, the fourth title in his Northern Lakes Mystery series. Nania’s stories, set in the Wisconsin Northwoods, draw heavily on the author’s experience in law enforcement and conservation, and Musky Run revolves around the popular Great Wilderness Race, which turns deadly. Nania relied on insight from IRONMAN competitors, a wilderness racer and a lumberjack to nail all the details. Previous titles in the series include Figure Eight, Spider Lake and Bough Cutter, which have been recognized by the Midwest Book Awards, Independent Publisher Book Awards and Next Generation Indie Book Awards. Seating is limited and tickets are required, but the event will be livestreamed on Crowdcast. 

media release: About the book:  Olympic medalist Anna MacDonald comes home to Namekagon County to emcee the Great Wilderness Race as predators stalk the Northwoods. While occasional interactions with potentially dangerous animals are old hat for most residents, this changes when unpredictable behavior patterns make it unclear who is the hunter and who is the hunted. Sheriff John Cabrelli and the new Musky Falls chief of police work swiftly to keep the community calm as they try to piece together the clues before it is too late.  

Musky Run is the fourth book in the award-winning Northern Lakes Mystery series, following Figure Eight, Spider Lake, and Bough Cutter.
