Deep North: 2 (Brenda Contay)

HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO PROTECT YOUR CHANCE FOR HAPPINESS?Journalist Brenda Contay seems to have it all: a Pulitzer Prize plenty of money and lots of friends. Just one thing is missing: a relationship that counts.That seems about to change when lawyer friend Marion Ross invites Brenda to go fishing in northern Minnesota. But they wont be roughing it: theyll be staying on a big comfy houseboat. Charlie Schmidt has a cabin nearby and before long Brenda is thinking a lot about Charlies gracefulness and good looks.But two other men have followed the women. Louis Rohmer knew Marion in college and has an Internet scheme to steal everything shes worth. Jerry Lomak is much more dangerous: Marions legal skills destroyed him in court. Hes headed for prison but Lomak has no intention of doing time or of letting a woman lawyer get away with her crimes.Its a beautiful place northern Minnesota. Cold clear unblemished. But none of it will count when Brenda Contay must choose between losing her chance for happiness or committing a terrible crime.
