Episode 320 - Kim McCollum - What Happens in Montana - A Murder Mystery
Kim McCollum lives in Bozeman, Montana with her blended menagerie of five kids, two dogs, and seven spoiled chickens. An excerpt from her upcoming novel What Happens in Montana (release date January 25, 2024) appeared in The Copperfield Review Quarterly and her short stories have appeared in The Dillydoun Review, Beyond Solace, and Fiction on the Web. She was a finalist in Now Novel's character writing contest and is the author of the travel blog happygoluckytraveler.com.
Book: What Happens in Montana explores friendship, betrayal, and forgiveness with blunt truth and witty insights. Join Maude and her newfound friends as they confront the challenges of life, love, and the occasional poltergeist. Is their friendship strong enough to get them through it all?
A girlfriend’s reunion at a haunted, holistic hot springs retreat in Montana leads to spilled secrets and betrayal, but does it also lead to murder?
Whiskey-swigging Maude Reeves, the nearly eighty-year-old chef, longs for the glory days when the retreat hosted martini-sipping celebrities instead of long-haired hippies who refuse to wear deodorant. She prefers the company of her dog and the ghost who haunts the retreat to regular people, but one of the ladies who arrives for the reunion bears a striking resemblance to her late daughter, and she is helplessly drawn in. Brooke, feisty, adventurous, and a bit reckless, proposes the reunion at the retreat with her best friends to get away from the current chaos of her life. One of those friends, Tracy, has devoted her life to her children and her husband despite her excruciating boredom. But a long-held secret threatens these friendships she holds most dear. Haunting the place is a ghost who, in life, dealt with tragedy by turning to prostitution which led to her murder over 100 years ago at the very place they are all staying.
