Waterlines is a coming-of-age story, a love story, a murder mystery, a tale of survival, and an elegy for ecology and the American dream.
This novel centers around Quartz Lake, a fictitious sky-blue jewel that could easily be one of Minnesota’s famed ten thousand lakes. Three stories are interwoven with chapters that go back and forth in time like waves crashing on a shore. One story tells of the haunting Dakota and Ojibwe tribes who lived on the shores of Quartz Lake and struggled to survive during the Dakota Wars of the 1860s. Another involves the touristy, speedboat-loving crowd who relished lake life during the glory days of the 1980s. Then there is Eleanor, a corporate editor turned yoga teacher and mother, who returns to the lake in the early 2000s after many years of absence. She sees how much the lake has changed and must uncover the secrets of the past to reconcile them with the present and future. The destiny of Quartz Lake is at stake.
Waterlines ebbs and flows through the Minnesota lake country, mirroring the changing sacred spirit of water that connects us to ourselves and all living beings who came before and all who aspire in our wake.
