Product Details

Praise

“The sixth novel in author Keith McCafferty’s outstanding Sean Stranahan Mystery Series, Cold Hearted River is another compelling read from beginning to end that will prove be an enduringly popular addition to any community library Mystery/Suspense collections. A ‘must’ for the personal reading lists of dedicated mystery buffs in general, and Keith McCafferty fans in particular.”—Midwest Book Review.com

“Set along our own Madison River, images of fingers floating in tequila jars and cowboys surviving the cold in horse carcasses will fill the silence of your fishing meditation for weeks.”—Outside Bozeman

“When a book begins with a harrowing struggle for survival in the Montana mountains and uses as its MacGuffin a lost trunk of Ernest Hemingway’s fishing tackle (with the tantalizing possibility of lost manuscripts tucked inside), you know you’re not in for a run-of-the-mill mystery . . . McCafferty’s skill at creating memorable characters has even the walk-ons warming to the spotlight…bittersweet.”—Booklist

“Colorful characters and forbidding locales complement the book’s central puzzle, which has surprising real-life roots.”—Publishers Weekly

“An exciting adventure set against some of the West’s most stunning landscapes. Cleverly interwoven with the true story of Hemingway’s lost trunk, it goes far to elucidate the mystique of fly-fishing.”—Kirkus


Praise for Keith McCafferty’s Sean Stranahan mystery series

“McCafferty’s wryly bantering characters are irresistible, his humor tangy, and his lyricism potent as he matches escalating action with intriguing disquisition…A sharply ironic and suspenseful tale surreptitiously veined with profound insights into love, friendship, cultural collisions, and dire conflicts over wildlife and land, the sacred and the profitable.”—Booklist (starred)

“Rich in history, local color, and unique characters.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred)

“Explosive, gripping and not to be missed.  Keith McCafferty gets the West just right…McCafferty is an impressive writer.”—Margaret Coel, New York Times bestselling author of The Man Who Fell From the Sky and Winter’s Child
 
“Keith McCafferty understands that there is much more to a riveting mystery than what is commonly found in the typical whodunit. He also knows that a rousing good tale can often shine a light on important matters that deserve our attention…He writes with heart and command of the story that sparkles on every page.”—Michael McGarrity, New York Times bestselling author of Backlands
 
“McCafferty nails the delicate balance between humor and heft in a genuine way.”
—P.J. Tracy, New York Times bestselling author of Off the Grid
