"Success is No Mystery"
By Heather Torrence

"No matter where Lise sets her novels or what adventures befall her characters, one thing is certain. Strong female characters always populate a Lise McClendon novel. Her first detective, the intrepid Alix Thorssen, describes herself as "a semiprosperous art dealer, so-so kayaker, single girl, thirty-something." While most women can easily relate to this independent and adventurous amateur sleuth, Rocky Mountain women will find a special affinity with Alix's fierce self-sufficiency. This gallery owner is truly salt of the earth, a "good guy" fighting to find the truth while protecting the people and landscape she loves."
