As a child in Minnesota, Todd Borg grew up with two fixations, reading mysteries and skiing the great, precipitous mountain ranges of the Upper Midwest. The first fixation led him to make up his own stories. The second led him and his wife to move to Tahoe in 1990, where they could ski on real mountains. Borg now has 21 Tahoe mysteries featuring ex-San Francisco Homicide Inspector Owen McKenna who plies his detective trade in Tahoe. Borg’s books have achieved multiple accolades, many rave reviews in newspapers and magazines coast-to-coast including a starred reviw in Library Journal. His books have won the Ben Franklin Award for Best Mystery of the Year and been chosen by Library Journal as one of the Top 5 Mysteries of the Year.
