This is Riordan’s second novel which takes place on Washington Island in Door County, Wisconsin.
It is the type of book I normally do not pick up but I loved it. My wife and I were recently on a cruise that left from Venice. Book two in the award-winning North of the Tension Line series, The Audacity of Goats is the continuing tale of Fiona Campbell, and her reluctant adventures among the pleasures, mysteries, and exasperations of small town life. Fiona must decide whether it is time to leave the island for good, or to make another reckless gamble. Are they victims of an elaborate teenage prank, or is there a malevolent stranger lurking on the island? Meanwhile, out-of-state owners of a new goat farm seem to consider themselves the self-proclaimed leaders of the island Pali, the ferry captain, is troubled by his own unique version of writer’s block and Ben, the captain’s ten year-old son, appears to be hiding something. But it is only when the imperturbable Lars Olafsen announces his retirement, and Stella declares her candidacy for office, that the islanders realize trouble is brewing. A series of unsettling nighttime incidents have left the islanders uncertain whether to be nervous or annoyed. All is not well north of the tension line.
