Buried in a good book / Tamara Berry.

Berry, Tamara. (Author).

Summary:

Author Tess Harrow and her teenage daughter, Gertrude, need a fresh start. Now that Tess's divorce is final, the best place for her and Gertie to heal and reconnect is the rustic cabin in the woods that Tess inherited from her late grandfather. Between the beautiful pond on the property, the majestic mountain views, and the peaceful forest, it should be a relaxing getaway. But they've barely made it through the door when an explosion shakes the cabin and it's suddenly raining fish parts and ...is that a human arm? Tess was hardly convincing Gertie that a summer without Wi-Fi and running water would be an adventure. Now she's thrust into a murder investigation, neighbors are saying they've spotted Bigfoot in the woods near her cabin, and to top it off, the local sheriff is the spitting image of her famous character Detective Gonzales... With so much more than her daughter's summer plans at stake, it's up to Tess to put her crime-writing skills to the test and solve this case before anyone else gets hurt.
