Now an established and accepted member of the homicide squad, she unexpectedly brings a new case to the table when she stumbles across a body as Canada Day dawns. While it was initially assumed to be an accidental drowning, the autopsy results say otherwise. SKIMMING OVER THE LAKE It’s Parade Day, and Margie would have thought that any trouble would have centered around drinking and motor vehicles. Or being trampled by horses. Or clowns. But the latest homicide investigation is nowhere near the parade route, but on the outskirts of town. And the culprit appears to be a tiny boat. HAZARD OF THE HILLS A woman is found at the bottom of a 70-meter drop. It is pretty clear from the beginning that she was killed in the fall. But you can never be sure until the medical examiner’s report comes back. It would appear that there is a lot more to be investigated after all. Investigate this new series today!
