The Island Talks: Mystery Author Maggie Wheeler

The Seaway Valley’s Queen of Crime reads The Last Wave By, the profound finale to her much-loved mystery series.

Maggie Wheeler has spent over two decades showcasing the social, cultural and psychological impact of the St. Lawrence Seaway and Power Project on Canadians affected. She is the author of the best-selling “Lost Villages” historical murder mystery series, which has garnered a nomination for the Ontario Premier’s Awards for the Arts, an Ontario Provincial Hansard, and the “people’s choice” Seeker’s Award for Literary Artist of the Year 2013 and 2018.

The Island Talks speaker series launched in the Summer of 2022 with six local author readings, had amazing turnouts on the Hotel patio, and great conversations followed. To keep the magic going, we’ve been hosting Talks featuring community conversations on social and environmental issues throughout the Winter and Spring, as well as the Summer literary talks.
