Well, it's official.  The Ridge: A Zach Sutton Mystery will be released by North Star Press, Inc. on June 1, 2013.  It was a whirlwind year. It took nearly six years to finish and publish If I Know It's Coming, so pushing through this new novel in just one year was a brand new experience.   

It is a very different kind of novel than If I Know It's Coming.  It is a much more plot-driven, suspenseful kind of story that was very fun to write.  I have had the basic storyline in my head for a long time.  When I used to chaperone the 7th grade trip to Wolf Ridge Environmental Center I would tell the scary story of an old hermit who lived in the woods.  We would stop by the old, abandoned truck along the path, and in complete darkness I would tell the story to the eager young students.  I always had a blast and the story gain some legendary status among the Oak Grove Middle School student body.  Eventually I wrote the story down in the form of a short story, but when I had a chance to develop the story into a novel, I jumped on it.  The story has evolved a great deal, but I still remember those first oral tellings of it. Great memories.  

I hope everyone will check out the book when it is released on June 1.  Stay tuned for upcoming events such as the release party, which will probably take place in early June as well.  Below is a quick synopsis of the book.  Enjoy!!

The Ridge: A Zach Sutton Mystery


Zach Sutton’s little brother has been missing for over a year.  His parents have divorced. The police have found no clues. But it isn’t until Zach travels to Minnesota’s north woods on a field trip that the mystery really begins.  Faced with supernatural visions and ghostly images, Zach finds himself in a scary adventure he couldn’t have dreamed.
