Joanne C. Spencer's "The Letter Keeper" is a new book set in Northville.

Northville's picturesque nature is the perfect setting for a book. Joanne C. Spencer, author of the new book "The Letter Keeper," had the same idea. 

The book, which is Spencer's first novel and was released July 27, is fiction but many parts touch on her life in Northville, her hometown.

The book follows Josie Summers, whose entire life is affected by a series of letters that lead to emotional turmoil, discovery and the test of love. These 10 letters in the book are metaphors, Spencer said, for events and people she knew in her life in Northville. 

The book includes several Northville references. Find these five places around Northville in Spencer's book.
