Victoria Houston lives, writes and fishes in northern
Wisconsin. Her Loon Lake Fishing Mystery series is set
there, too, against a background of fishing -- fly fishing
as well as bait fishing for musky, walleye, bass and
bluegill.
Houston started fishing at age three but, at age eleven,
gave up fishing for boys. Later in life, she reconsidered
and gave up boys for fishing. While she couldn't wait to
escape Wisconsin at age 18, she reconsidered that, too --
and returned thirty years later. For the last seven years,
she has been dedicated to writing mysteries AND learning to
fly fish!
These efforts follow on the heels of a career in public
relations and book and newspaper publishing. Houston is
also the author of six non-fiction books.
Her Loon Lake series features three main characters.
Lewellyn Ferris is the local police chief who is also an
ardent fly fisherman. With the help of retired dentist, Doc
Osborne, she solves murders. Also helping out is Ray Pradt,
a good-looking young fishing guide and champion loon caller
who wears a stuffed trout on his head. So far the eccentric
trio has managed to solve crimes without falling overboard.
