B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree
When the body of Maggie McFarland, an 86-year old widow, is
found among the rubble of the once-famous, landmark Artemis Hotel, leveled by
fire nearly seventy years ago, residents of Roscoe are shocked. However, it is
not the location where Maggie is found, but rather the manner of her demise
that has everyone puzzled. For it isn't a heart attack that has felled her; nor
has she suffered a stroke, or taken a fatal fall from a porch. Her life has not
ended so uneventfully. Maggie has been killed by a bullet to the heart, fired
from a pistol at close range. Who would possibly want to kill this kind, gentle
woman, known throughout the area as one of the best trout fly tiers within a
hundred miles of the famed Beaverkill River? That is the mystery that confronts
Matt Davis in Broken Promises, one of the most baffling cases of his career.
