LIVONIA, Mich. - s4story -- Northern Light will especially appeal to readers who enjoy mysteries set in Michigan. Rich in local flavor, beauty, and culture, Deb Davies brings that true "up north feeling" into her writing.

"I enjoy writing mysteries as they invite us to think about bigger issues," says author Deb Davies. "My new series introduces readers to a fun cast of characters as they share curiosity, courage, and offbeat humor while solving mysteries against the beautiful backdrop of northern Michigan."

After the death of her husband, Claire is finding it hard to adjust to being a widow in northern Michigan. She and her cat soon find themselves surrounded by a group of visitors. The empty house begins to feel more like home until a raven mysteriously appears inside, resulting in a disastrous mess, and a new friend for houseguest Charles, an eccentric ornithologist. But random attacks escalate and soon no one is safe. When the unlikely group comes face-to-face with someone intent on murder, will their newfound friendship be strong enough to protect them?
