Lies Of Omission
Hanneke Bauer Mystery #1

This book is set in Milwaukee and Watertown Wisconsin in 1855.

When Pomeranian immigrant Hanneke Bauer reaches Wisconsin, she believes her dearest dreams are coming true. After reuniting with her husband Fridolin at his farm near Watertown, she will help create a true home.

Instead, she receives the shocking news that he is dead.

Alone and destitute, Hanneke is determined to discover the details of his passing. Her efforts prompt animosity from Fridolin’s friends, anger the deputy sheriff, and entangle her in the rising tide of anti-immigrant sentiment.

Finding herself in danger, Hanneke races to learn the truth about her husband’s secrets and lies…before a killer silences her forever.

Lies Of Omission is available as a 260-page trade paperback, and for eBook apps and readers, including the Amazon Kindle, Apple Book, Barnes & Noble Nook, Rakuten Kobo, and others.
