Canada is a biiiiig country!
Jay Forman's amateur sleuth, travel writer Lee Smith, has got innumerable places to visit...and lots of crime to solve. If you're missing the ability to travel in this our covid year then Jay and Lee can definitely help you out with some virtual travels.
In the second book in the series, No Return, Lee visits a fly-in Ojibway community in Northern Ontario to investigate the shooting death of a mining prospector. Other books in the series explore the Muskoka region of Ontario (one I'm familiar with from childhood visits to my grandparents), Newfoundland, and, coming in 2021, the west coast of Vancouver Island (where I happen to live).

Excerpt from No Return
CHAPTER ONE
Sara knew something was wrong when all the kids went quiet.
A raven’s long black wings swept through the air low over her head. His caw sounded like the alarm on her bedside clock radio and it alerted the rest of his conspiracy. Six of the big birds swooped down and began circling above the six little heads of her stationary students at the shore.
Mary’s tiny hand squeezed Sara’s hard. “What is it?” she asked in barely more than a whisper.
“Maybe they’ve found some rubies?” Sara forced herself to sound cheerful, even though she knew darn well that the kids cou...
