Description

Hellie MacConnell retreats from a troubled relationship in Toronto to the quiet town of Banff, Alberta, where life is peaceful and nature abounds. But when her landlord turns up dead and Hellie's bear-loving neighbour Arthur Elliott disappears, Hellie finds herself at the heart of a murder investigation. Is Arthur a dangerous extremist who will do anything to protect "his" grizzly bears? Is someone lurking in wait for Hellie, too? And what dark history is shared between Arthur and a visiting Texan hunter?

A truly Canadian mystery set in isolated Banff, Grizzly Lies charms with small-town legend and chills with dark secrets. As Hellie delves deeper into the mystery of her landlord's death, she learns to listen to the stories of others, heal herself, and let go of the past.
