Genre: Travel Mystery
Outfitter Hardy Durkin and company are visiting the Black
Forest area of Germany, staying in the guest wing of a local castle, Schloss
Haeflin. In the midst of hiking the Black Forest, enjoying all things Swabian,
and spending a day in Baden-Baden, the hikers find themselves at ground zero
for coeds disappearing from the nearby University of Freiburg and foul play is
suspected. Unresolved personal issues of several members of the group threaten
the tour’s cohesion, and Hardy discovers the Baron, who owns the schloss, has
stolen someone’s identity as well as his fortune. Ever the sleuth, Hardy
untangles the web of deceit, madness, and murder in ‘The Black Forest
Reckoning’.
Bluette Matthey is a third generation Swiss American and an
avid lover of European cultures. She has decades of travel and writing
experience. She is a keen reader of mysteries, especially those that immerse
the reader in the history, inhabitants, culture, and cuisine of new places. Her
passion for travel, except airports (where she keeps a mystery with her to pass
the time), is shared by her husband, who owned a tour outfitter business in
Europe. Bluette particularly loves to explore regions that are not on the “15
days in Europe” itineraries. She also enjoys little-known discoveries, such as
the London Walks, in well-known areas. She firmly believes that walking and
hiking bring her closer to the real life of any locale. Bluette maintains a
list of hikes and pilgrimages throughout Europe for future exploration. She
lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, with her husband, faithful dog, and band of
loving cats. You can visit Bluette’s website at www.bluettematthey.com
