Praise for Crazy Mountain Kiss
"McCafferty does a marvelous job of manipulating mood, moving from
light to dark... [Crazy Mountain Kiss] is the best McCafferty novel
yet, and it’s a must for Craig Johnson and C. J. Box
fans."—Booklist (Starred)
"This is a must for fans of eclectic mysteries in which the setting
is just as important as the characters."—Publisher's Weekly
(Starred)
"Stranahan's fourth case blends humor with heartbreak, all flavors
of eccentricity with a struggle for normalcy, and a natural
backdrop that can make even the most powerful humans and their
deeds look small."—Kirkus
Praise for Dead Man's Fancy
“McCafferty’s beautifully written third mystery….The complex,
multilayered story smoothly switches from one character to
another.”—Publishers Weekly (Starred)
“McCafferty knows his country and his characters, who have a
comfortable, lived-in feel and yet shine as individuals….[his]
understated prose deserves to be savored.”—Kirkus
“[Dead Man’s Fancy] delivers a carefully plotted western
procedural….Good reading for fans of [C. J.] Box, Craig Johnson,
Nevada Barr, and Paul Doiron, although McCafferty has his own
distinctive voice.”—Booklist
“McCafferty’s third series entry lassos up a range of topics—wolf
reintroduction, wilderness living and survival, animal rights—that
are uncovered through his protagonists’ meticulous
sleuthing.”—Library Journal
Praise for The Gray Ghost Murders
“This is a truly wonderful read. In an old and crowded field,
Keith has created characters fresh, quirky and yet utterly
believable, then stirred them into a mystery that unfolds with
grace and humor against a setting of stunning beauty and danger.
Stranahan, the fisherman sleuth, breaks free of the old
cliche's and delights with his humanity, vulnerability and love of
cats. Yes, cats. Keith has written a book that speaks
to women and men regardless of color or background. The only
downside of this book is that we must wait a year for the next
one.”—Nevada Barr, New York Times bestselling author of
the Anna Pigeon Mysteries
“Even amid the serene trout streams of Montana, Sean Stranahan
can’t seem to stay out of trouble—and there’s a heap of it in this
bracing second adventure for the fly fisher/painter/PI… Field
& Stream editor McCafferty skillfully weaves Big Sky color,
humor, and even romance (in the form of Sean’s stunning new
girlfriend, Martinique, who’s bankrolling veterinary school by
working as a bikini barista) into the suspenseful plot as it
gallops toward a white-knuckle. . . climax. The book’s biggest
lure, however, remains Sean and his rugged band of Montana
individualists.”—Publishers Weekly
“Think big-city CSI teams have it tough? Their examinations of
crime scenes are hardly ever interrupted by a grizzly bear like the
one that sends Deputy Harold Little Feather to the
hospital…Irresistible.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Firmly set in the Montana wilderness and populated by well-drawn
characters. This series will appeal to fans of Nevada Barr and
C. J. Box as well as to fly-fishing devotees.”—Booklist
