Something Suspicious in SaskatchewanKatie and Rusty are cousins who are traveling from Victoria with their grandparents to spend some time on their Aunt Margaret's farm in Saskatchewan near Humboldt. Katie sees herself as a detective and has solved crimes in the past. Things are not what they expect on their arrival. A biotech company has moved into the area and plans to take over some of the land. Someone is sabotaging things on Aunt Margaret's farm. Equipment has gone missing and is left in places where damage can be done to people and the farm. There has been a suspicious fire. Katie's cousin Megan is morose and depressed. Her boyfriend, Scott, was helping on the farm but was dismissed after he was caught stealing. Megan is so unsure of herself that she wonders if she is to blame for what is happening. Cliff is the hired hand who wants to buy the farm as soon as he is able. Cliff is determined to break up any friendship between Megan and Scott. Although Katie doesn't like Megan, she is shocked at the changes in Megan that have occurred in the last two years since Megan had visited with Katie and her family in Victoria. Now Katie overhears a phone call where someone is threatening Aunt Margaret. With no shortage of suspects-from Cousin Megan to the jilted boyfriend and the controlling farmhand-the two detectives find themselves in deeper than they thought and are soon in real danger. |
