Model Wave, a summer mystery, begins with a romantic date and a turtle sundae. It ends with a businessman dead on his mega-pontoon and more questions than answers in Wisconsin, the land of brandy old-fashioneds and fish fries.

Former fashion model Mel Tower travels Up North for a vacation and a date with a handsome sheriff. Then a thunderstorm strikes and a man is discovered dead on his boat. Did someone kill him-or worse, did his pontoon go rogue and dispatch the fellow? A killer lurks, but like the hodag, the legendary critter of the Northwoods, they may be undiscoverable. Mel leaves no curd, er, stone unturned to preserve her new romance and seek the truth.
