Second book in the Anna Pigeon series. This one takes place in Isle Royale National Park located on Lake Superior. The mystery surrounds the death of a local diver who is found at a deep-water diving site on an old wreck at the bottom of the lake. He is dressed in what appears to be clothes worn in the 1920s. How did he die, and how did he get to the bottom of the lake? This is Anna's dilemma in this second of her adventures. As usual, I enjoyed Barr's descriptions of the locale and the characters involved in the mystery including an incestuous set of twins and a bizarre couple who insist another person was eaten by her husband along with a case of pickle relish! I had never heard of Isle Royale but it sounds like a very interesting place to visit especially if you enjoy fishing or boating. Mild recommendation for this one.
