The North Woods Mysteries is a series of 3 Christian adventure books that focus around a group of young people that go through some exciting adventures and learn some incredible lessons. Each book is about an exciting mystery with lots of unknowns. Each book is also filled with Biblical lessons, with examples of God’s great creation, and with lessons that will challenge you spiritually. They are designed to stress that God knows us, loves us, and has a definitely purpose for each of our lives.

These mysteries take place in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is a wonder land of things to see and experience. Early settlers were drawn to the vast deposits of copper and the great deposits of iron ore (things that later helped contribute to the auto industry). It is said that Michigan’s vast forests helped rebuild Chicago after the great fires that they experienced. Many ghost towns began to appear across the peninsula as the mines gave up their riches, and many abandoned railroads left trails penetrating it’s miles and miles of forest lands and wilderness. Beautiful lakes, miles of rivers, and dozens of water falls and endless beaches surround the area, and the Pictured Rocks shoreline often boasts Bald Eagles guarding the Lake Superior splendor. While heading deer hunting in the late 1940’s my uncles told me, we’re coming to Paradise. Soon a little settlement of tar paper homes appeared. That was Paradise! Things are much different today. That is the setting of these Mysteries.
