The Falls Mysteries

By J.E. Barnard

If there’s one thing Life has taught Lacey McCrae, it’s that everything falls apart: her marriage to a fellow cop, her RCMP career, her belief in the essential goodness of people.

Hunting for healing, she's abandoned the Lower Mainland for the sparsely populated foothills near Calgary. But those hills around Bragg Creek and Cochrane harbour age-old feuds between ranchers and oil-men, environmentalists and developers, old-time settlers and new-money snobs… and the area’s First Nations with their own complicated agendas.

Grudges build to violence, people fall, communities fracture, and yet the seasons turn, the mountains endure. In her private pursuit of justice Lacey slowly learns that, for every life that falls apart, a way opens to rebuild it.

 

When the Flood Falls

A midnight prowler, a disabled best friend, & an old feud confront a traumatized ex-Mountie in a mountain resort town. Now the river’s rising, the stalker’s escalating, and her best friend is Suspect #1 in a murder investigation. Can Lacey set aside her trauma to solve the crime and save her friend?

"a compelling, intricate tale of love, community, and betrayal in the high-stakes worlds of big oil and pro hockey." --Barbara Fradkin (Inspector Green Mysteries)

Where the Ice Falls

Found by a psychic who wasn’t looking for him, the dead intern disrupts a ski chalet’s sale & everybody’s Christmas plans. Can ex-Mountie Lacey cope with a murder investigation on top of her roommate’s terminally ill mother, her best friend’s absence, & her car getting stolen?

 A cool winter mystery set in Alberta’s stunning snow laden landscapes. The supernatural element is balanced nicely with the pragmatics of a police procedural.   C.S. O’Cinneade (author of Starr Sign)

Why the Rock Falls

When a movie mogul & an oil baron eye each other’s wives at a dinner party, one guest ends up dead. Soon two more vanish into the unforgiving Alberta wilderness. Can ex-Mountie McCrae find the missing & keep the innocents safe while someone seeks bloody vengeance against an entire clan?

So enjoyable to have a good mystery set in Canada, overlaid on depictions of the geography, and current social, environmental, political realities. It really pulls the reader into the story.  Reader review
