Stresa in Literature -- Follow Me to Stresa

I haven't read it yet... but I just heard that Susan D. Ree, of Salt Lake City, UT, has recently self-published her first novel, which is entitled Follow Me to Stresa. The reviews say that it's a part romance/part mystery/part travelogue story revolving around an American woman, Ruth Adamson, on a three-week tour of Italy, during which she becomes involved with a mysterious man, Jack Anthony, who she has met on the plane. Her tour begins and ends in Stresa, and apparently the details are accurate apart from a dinner scene in the grotto of the Borromeo Palace.
Hmmm, I wonder if she ever took aperitivo at Buscion ... ?
Here's the link to Follow Me to Stresa on Amazon.com.
