before three young mountain bikers go missing while riding the trails

Partnering with a charming guest of the resort, novelist Casey Malone, Katie

Excerpt
from Dark Side of the Mountain
Katie Douglas looked through the windshield
of her Chevy Silverado as she drove toward the Tawnee Mountain Resort. The
gorgeous colors of fall were in full swing and the crisp autumn air made
everything stand out in sharp relief.
As she had driven through sleepy Old Town,
New Jersey, she had seen signs of new development, no doubt a spin-off benefit from
the world-class resort that lay ahead.
“A working vacation, they said,” she
whispered aloud. “Go up there and do your job, but, hey! Take some time off and
enjoy! Kick back and relax. You’ll love it!”
She smiled to herself as she thought of the
expense report she would write at the end of this job.
After parking in the area reserved for
check-ins, she collected her suitcase and duffel bag from the rear seat of her
truck and made her way through the wood-framed glass doors and into the lobby.
She dipped her sunglasses and casually looked around.
So, this is where they come to play. Must be nice, she thought. High glass windows
overlooked Tawnee Mountain. Huge wooden posts and beams and a cozy fireplace
with chairs all around gave the place a rustic if upscale feel.
“May I help you?” The question came from a
young, blonde woman behind the reception counter. Katie smiled and dragged her
luggage toward her.
“Katie Douglas, Douglas Mechanical,” she
replied. “I’m here to inspect the ski-lifts.
There should be a room reserved for three days for me.” The receptionist nodded and turned to her
computer screen. A few taps later she
found what she was looking for.
“Yes, we have you here for three days,” the
young woman replied. Then a small smile crept over her face. “Would you like a
free upgrade? We have cabins available, fireplace and hot tub included!”
“Did you say free?” Katie asked. She loved free.
“Absolutely. It will also put you closer to the ski-lifts
and cable cars, but still very close to the main building for the restaurants
and lounges.”
“Where do I sign?” Katie grinned, slapping
her company Mastercard on the counter.
***
Across the lobby from the reception desk,
Casey Malone was relaxing in a leather armchair in the Fireplace Lounge. He looked up from his notebook and lowered
his reading glasses to study the tall figure in blue jeans, red plaid shirt
over a white T-shirt, with her long chestnut-brown hair flowing loosely around
her shoulders.
Quite a change from the usual 5th Avenue
togs one sees around here, he thought as he watched Katie Douglas collect her
luggage and stride out of sight down the hallway. He picked up his glass of bourbon and water
and took a sip. With an appreciative
sigh he placed the glass on the side table and went back to his notes.
Gales of laughter interrupted his thoughts
as a group of twenty-somethings approached the reception desk. He watched as three young couples signed in
and overheard the words ‘mountain biking’.
“Must be nice to be young,” he muttered,
thinking of the strenuous exercise of tearing up and down over the trails that
paralleled the ski runs up on Tawnee Mountain.
***
The sun had gone down on the resort and was
no longer streaming in through the high lobby windows when Casey heard someone
enter the lounge and sit in the armchair across from him. He glanced up and smiled easily as Miss Plaid
Shirt set her wine glass on the center table separating them.
“Chardonnay,” Casey quipped. A quizzical
look came over Katie’s face.
“How do you know?” she asked.
“The color,” Casey responded. “Chardonnay
is the only white wine with sufficient body to be aged in oak, hence the golden
color. If you look at other white wines,
they are straw colored and very pale in comparison.”
Smart-ass, Katie thought, taking in the
boyish smile and charm of the forty-something guy sitting opposite. His dark,
wavy hair with touches of grey gave him a sophisticated look.
“Katie Douglas,” she offered in
introduction. Casey smiled.
“Casey Malone. Pleased to meet you.”
Katie nodded in response. “Casey. Must be a
nick-name?”
“Actually, yes. It is,” Casey responded,
setting his notebook down. “How did you know?” Katie smiled and pointed to the
briefcase by his feet.
“K.C. Malone, in gold letters.”
“Maybe Casey is my middle name.”
“Probably not.”
“Touché,
madame,” Casey raised his glass to her.
Katie raised hers in response.
“And it’s mademoiselle, monsieur,” she
responded.
“Kenneth Charles. I hated Kenneth because I only heard it when
my mom was pissed at me. And Charles
always became Chuck. So, I went with
K.C., which eventually became Casey.
“Busy place,” Katie remarked.
“Yeah, for the time of year. I came up for some peace and quiet, figuring
it would be the shoulder season, golfers back to work, no snow yet for skiers,”
he replied. “But, if you got enough money, play time is any time.”
“You’re not part of the jet set?” she
asked, his Tweed smokers jacket complete with leather elbow patches and white
collared shirt making him seem at home.
“Hardly,” he said. “I’m a writer. A novelist.
I was hoping a little R and R would loosen up the creative juices.”
“What have you written?”
“Nothing yet,” he responded.
“Gotta love a successful man,” she ribbed,
sipping her wine with a playful smile.
“Call it a career change,” he answered. “Me
and the army didn’t get along.”
“Ah! A military man.”
“Ex-military man. One who didn’t get along
with superiors who kept getting people killed.
But, that’s another story.” He took a long pull on his drink and set it
down. Katie nodded her head with a
thoughtful look.
“And you?” he continued. “What’s your
story?”
“I’m here on company business. We inspect
and certify ski-lifts and cable cars. I
thought I would add a few days and kick back for a while.”
“Sounds like heavy work. And you’re
qualified to do this?” he asked.
She ignored the needle. “I have a Masters
Degree in both mechanical and electrical engineering, so, yeah, I’m qualified,”
she said with a satisfied smile.
“Besides, this place should be a piece of
cake,” she offered. “It’s practically brand new and the owner is a zillionaire,
so I doubt he cut corners, considering the clientele.”
Casey nodded with a smile as he sipped his
drink. He noticed her fingers were devoid of rings. Interesting lady, he
thought.
Katie finished her wine and stood up, offering
her hand. “It’s been nice chatting with you Mr. Malone. I’m gonna go to my
cabin and wash off some trail dust.
Maybe see you later?”
“Looking forward to it, Ms. Douglas,” Casey
jumped to his feet and accepted her hand with a slight squeeze. He watched as her tall, athletic figure
turned the corner and walked out of sight.
Casey sat down and lifted his glass to take
another sip. The fine Kentucky Bourbon was smooth as silk. A slight smile came
over his face as he realized that maybe this short vacation could get
interesting.

The Quinnipiac Disappearance
Tawnee Mountain Mysteries Book 7
by Lee Tidball
“Down in South Jersey, you got your Jersey Devil and the Pine Barrens.
Up here, we got E.T.s and Quinnipiac.”
So says Alan Riddiak, NSA field agent Jake Farrister’s friend, as they
rent kayaks at Quinnipiac Reservoir, site of what locals say was the
most credible mass sighting of a UFO in human history, and just miles
from the swanky Tawnee Mountain Resort, where Alan’s boss, revered
Senator Grant Bilson of New Jersey, is on an August recess
retreat.
“Ok…” smirks Jake.
But smirks turn to shock when two bizarre disappearances and an attempted
murder suck the rest out of the retreat, and Senator Bilson
commissions Jake to solve the mysteries.
Jake finds nothing but frustration, though, until he finally concedes what
quirky new friend Nikki Hayes has told him all along; when it comes
to Quinnipiac, the only explanations are inexplicable, the only
believable witnesses are unbelievable, and in order to stop the
world-shattering plot at the heart of the mysteries, Jake must do
what he thought was unthinkable—and hope he’s not too late.

By day I am a technical writer, and by night and on weekends I am
an artist and creative writer. Having lived in
Phoenix, AZ for 20+ years with my husband Tim, I found the urban
wilderness to be endlessly fascinating. Our home was tucked up
against South Mountain, the largest city park in the U.S. The canal
that ran across the base of the mountain provided inspiration
for painting, drawing, and writing with sitings of wild
coyotes, skittering fluffs of newborn quail, lizards, constant
change…and stories of life and death. In December 2017, we moved to
a beach in Florida, which is whole ‘nother story!
