Voices From Tahoe is a fictional mystery inspired by author Barbara Welnetz's early life living at Lake Tahoe. The story revolves around a middle-aged woman who moves to Lake Tahoe, California after her divorce. Finding herself immersed in nature for the first time, she develops a love of the mountains and the beauty of Lake Tahoe. While managing a small grocery on the west shore of the Lake, the story describes the joys and challenges of life as a single woman in her 40s. Yearning to make this new life permanent, three men come into her life. One for love, one from a different century and one who schemes to enact revenge on her. How she manages to grow and survive amidst these three provides readers with mystery, romance, and terror.
The novel is a first-person account of Tess McCarthy, who moves to Lake Tahoe, and her success as the eventual owner of the local mercantile. Living in a small cabin in the woods, she becomes entranced with nature as never before, both on her bicycle and through surprise interactions with local wildlife. The story also describes the funny and serious side of the grocery business. There is joy, sorrow and fear found in her interaction with three quite different men whom she meets in her first year at the Lake. Michael is the lonely man whom she stumbles upon in Blackwood Canyon's trails on the west shore of the Lake. He has suffered since a childhood fire left him scarred and alone in the world. Thomas is a spirit whom she discovers through an elderly widower who comes to find out if the spirit world really exists, and if Thomas is still inhabiting the upper floors of the old store that Tess is about to purchase. Jonathan is a troubled employee whom she suspects is stealing from the store. The termination of his employment results in a pattern of harassment he unleashes on her. Just when she believes he has left the lake, a terrifying confrontation ensues resulting in his attempt on her life.
