Mystery and Adventure on the Blue Glacier
Posted July 8, 2017 at 5:59 am by Tim Dustrude
Join Bill Liggett for a book signing and slide presentation of the Blue Glacier and nearby rainforest in the Washington wilderness, the setting and inspiration for his debut adventure novel, Watermelon Snow.
Bill spent the summer there as an 18-year-old and recently visited to do research for his book. Find out what it was like to live on a glacier for three months, and experience the beauty and majesty of this magical yet dangerous place, located in your own backyard.
Watermelon Snow tells the story of climate scientist Dr. Kate Landry and her students on the Blue Glacier. Dr. Landry makes a remarkable discovery, triggering a series of tragic events that threaten her life—and the lives of everyone around her.
Against the backdrop of global warming, the book blends adventure, mystery, science, and suspense in the tradition of Michael Crichton and Robin Cook.
