From the reviewers:
An established must-read romance author, Maggie Bishop has crossed into the mystery genre with finesse. Her latest novel is packed with suspense around a tightly-woven plot which begins with the poisoning of dogs and escalates to the murder of a local man. Throughout, she deliciously teases the reader with the bristly attraction between the investigating detective and the woman who found the man’s body and who just might be a suspect. Set against the beautiful backdrop of Boone, North Carolina, with engaging characters, red herrings at every turn, and a galvanizing story line, this is a must-have, must-read. Highly recommended. — Christy Tillery French
Can a woman character be an over-achiever? I thought so at first. Here is Jemma Chase, horse-woman, trail-guide, carpenter, photographer, CSI-forensics fan, who on discovering a dead body, decides to become an all-out sleuth! MURDER AT BLUE FALLS abounds with poisoned dogs, arson attacks, mysterious thefts, eccentric characters, and finally a dead man. – Dave Port
Courtesy of Maggie Bishop I have just had a cantor alongside Trail Leader Jemma Chase in the Appalachian mountains. Of course I don’t ride and I have never been to that part of the United States (yet), but it was fun and I felt that I was really there. – Lin B. Halton
Maggie Bishop hikes, skis, climbs, swims, explores and writes in the mountains of North Carolina where she settled in 1993 with her husband and cat. Every time they travel, they seek out other mountains but none are as exciting as the ancient Appalachians. When asked, “What do you do?” her answer is, “Entertain with word pictures.” Through her books, readers escape to the mountains.
She was chosen as one of “100 Incredible East Carolina University Women” for literature and leadership. She’s an Air Force brat who put herself through ECU and received an MBA degree, a former manufacturing executive, founder and past president of High Country Writers, past Secretary of Central Pennsylvania Romance Writers, and is a member of Romance Writers of America and Sisters in Crime. Maggie’s the current Treasurer of High Country Writers in Boone, NC.
