Indigo Lake: A Novel (The Dushane Sisters Trilogy Book 2) Kindle Edition

The Dushane sisters are back! Courtney Pierce brings us the second entry of this hilarious and poignant trilogy of three sisters who dig into their family dirt. What they find is sibling love, laughter, and tears.

Television interviews can be tricky. When best-selling author Olivia Novak is asked to appear on a New York talk show for her new book, The Executrix, she isn’t prepared for the invitation to include her two middle-age sisters, Lauren and Danny, and also Danny’s spoiled therapy dog, Pogo.

If the trip from Portland, Oregon, isn’t enough of a fiasco, the interview becomes a three-sister calamity. Slip-ups from Danny and Lauren about two other books - their mother’s posthumously published murder mystery and Olivia’s secret mobster memoir - set off a chain reaction of unwanted attention. Before they even leave the studio, the sisters are threatened with a lawsuit from Mom’s elderly cousin and hit the radar of the Philadelphia mob.

With video of Pogo’s shocked expression replaying on the giant screens in Times Square, Olivia goes into damage control. She piles her sisters, the dog, and their family baggage into an SUV to confront their accuser in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire - with a silver Lincoln tracking her bumper in the rearview mirror. Protecting Mom’s reputation might get them all killed - or give Olivia the ultimate story she’s been dying to live.

Courtney Pierce lives in Oregon with her husband, stepdaughter, and bossy cat. By day, she's an executive in the Broadway entertainment industry. She dove into the writing life after becoming transformed by the magic of fiction from a theater seat, studying what made audiences laugh, cry, or walk out the door. Her novels are filled with humor, heart, and a touch of mystery. She writes for baby boomers, and there's always a pet to steal the show.

Courtney's first trilogy, STITCHES, BRUSHES, and RIFFS, is a wild romp about a boomer couple who finds a magical artifact at an estate sale. The series has a touch of magical realism and explores the themes of immortality and reaching one's potential late in life.

Her latest series, THE DUSHANE SISTERS TRILOGY, starts with THE EXECUTRIX, peaks with INDIGO LAKE, and concludes with INDIGO LEGACY to be released in November 2108. The trilogy is a humorous and poignant tale of three middle-age sisters who discover a manuscript for a murder mystery in their mother's safe after her death. When the sisters get the book published, their lives will forever change. The quest to protect their mother's reputation sets off on a hilarious adventure to discover the story behind Mom's book. Only a unbreakable sibling bond will help these three sisters succeed.

Courtney has also published two short stories: 1313 HUIDEKOPER PLACE, for the 2013 NIWA Short Story Anthology Thirteen Tales of Speculative Fiction, and THE NEST, for the Windtree Press anthology The Gift of Christmas. She is a regular contributor to the blog ROMANCING THE GENRES.

Courtney's books are published through Windtree Press. More information can be found at windtreepress.com

I LOVED my trip back to the familiar territory of the Dushane sisters. Courtney paints a picture of New England and the adventures of the sisters that makes you feel that you are along for the ride. I laughed, I cried, and I thoroughly enjoyed my ride. My only issue is that I will have to wait several months to pick up their story in the next installment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sisters,mob and dogs
Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2016
These three sisters are hilarious. I laughed so hard over the spider entering the scene as Liv tries to be all series with the gun. This is the first book I have read by Courtney Pierce and did not realize it was a second in a series. It is a great stand alone story. I do look forward to going back and reading the first one to see the crazy antics of these gals. A fun read filled with lots of humor.

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2017
A real page turner. I read the first book and had to start in on the 2nd book right away! Kept my attention and the characters were easy to follow. The story line kept my interest and I did not want to put the book down. Can hardly wait for the third book to be available! Highly recommend this book and all books of this author as she really knows how to tell a story and keep you up at night!

5.0 out of 5 stars A novel I truly enjoyed & recommend!
Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2016
I was a bit hesitant to read this one since I hadn’t read the first book in the series. I needn’t have worried, though. One needn't need the first one to get into this one. This is a novel about a mismatched family lead by sister and author Olivia, as she leads her sisters into more trouble with a mobster’s memoir. It’s a funny and touching novel based on actual places from the author Pierce’s childhood. I can’t wait for book 3 in this series.
I rightfully give this novel five stars without any hesitation!

5.0 out of 5 stars Indigo Lake and The Dushane Sisters Make Me Smile!
Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2016
The Dushane sisters continue to delight and entertain in this 2nd book of the trilogy. I really enjoyed the story and the setting. I was delighted to find out that the author Courtney Pierce actually based it actual places from her childhood. It made me want to visit Wolfeboro to check out the Inns and lakes of New Hampshire. I love that the sisters feel real and relatable. They have tampons falling out of their purses and gastrointestinal distress. It was a great read and I'm looking forward to the third!

4.0 out of 5 stars Lovingly Mismatched Sisters
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2016
The second installment of the Dushane Sisters Trilogy brings more adventures of this lovingly mismatched family. Olivia, the author, leads her sisters into more trouble with her mobster’s memoir and canine non-profit from Portland to New Hampshire and the lovely Wolfeboro area. As the sisters bond closer, all details felt authentic to setting and character, except the doggy details.
Consistently funny and poignant. What’s next for the sisters? Especially Lauren? Wait for book 3.
