Starvation Lake by Bryan Gruley

Starvation Lake is the story of a young man who has returned home to a job as a reporter for a small newspaper in an equally small town.

His life and the lives of his friends and family has centered around ice hockey from childhood on. The disappearance of the hockey coach in snowmobile accident years ago once again becomes big news when the snowmobile is discovered.

Along with the snowmobile, one secret after another is uncovered--secrets that will change the town of Starvation Lake forever.

The characters are wonderful in the book. For me there were far too many descriptions of hockey matches, but I'm not a sports fan of any kind, and I realize the interaction of the players and the coach were vital to the plot.

All in all, this was a good read, though possibly more appealing to the male reader.
