Arctic Intrusion: A Madge Franklin Mystery

VERO BEACH, Fla. - Jan. 31, 2023 - PRLog -- Alaska's Wilderness Marks the Spot for Mayhem & Murder in This 3rd Book of Exciting Mystery Series

The beauty and wonder of Alaska's arctic tundra is the setting for this murder mystery pitting two amateur sleuths against the nefarious motives of two large corporations.

Senior citizens Madge and Paul Franklin embark on their third travel adventure in Arctic Intrusion: A Madge Franklin Mystery. This time, the couple go undercover at the soon-to-open Arctic Adventure Lodge, where murder and mayhem have shaken up this unique part of the planet.

They work with Madge's "boys" to solve several murders, as well as uncover just what the big businesses have to hide. Their new friend, ecological researcher Nona Richards, explains the importance of protecting the arctic from the intrusion of development. But first, there are murders to be solved.

Notes the author: Bear in mind that while Madge and Paul are fictional characters, many of their experiences are rooted in reality. Deadman Lake is real, as are Chicken, Chickenstock, Tok, Fairbanks, WEIO, and other assorted locations and events within Alaska. However, the Arctic Adventure Lodge, its location within the Alaskan Arctic Circle, Sterret Lake, and the characters and corporations portrayed in this story are strictly a figment of my overactive imagination. On the other hand, the information on the tundra, conservation, and climate change is, to the best of my knowledge, accurate."

About the Author: Much like the characters in her Madge Franklin series, author Kate McLaughlin and her husband of 60 years spent 16 years on the road as full-time RVers. "During our years of travel, we worked with the National Park Service and U.S. Fish and Wildlife, as well as with an organization that allowed us to go around the country doing service projects and disaster rebuilds. Much of what I write is based on personal experience." Although she settled in New Mexico, "My love for Alaska, my passion for the arctic, and my distress at how irresponsible we have been in caring for our only home, Earth, inspired this book."
