a

The

Book

"The
Winged
Spur"
by
Sam
Morton
Saturday

22nd
11:00
am-1:00
pm
We're
excited
about
this
new
book
from
the
author
of
"Where
the
Rivers
Run
North".
They
rode
through
the
night
like
ghosts
crossing
the
border.
Moving
through
the
wall
built
a
thousand
years
before
by
the
Romans
to
keep
them
out
of
England,
they
stole
horses
and
cattle
from
the
wealthy
earls
to
the
south.
These
were
the
horsemen
from
Annandale,
the
River
Esk
and
the
debatable
land
on
Scotland's
border.
For
five
hundred
years
they
formed
their
own
armies,
fought
in
Scotland's
great
battles
from
Robert
Bruce
to
Mary
Queen
of
Scots
and
into
Ireland.
These
men
and
women
of
clan
Johnston/e,
Douglas
and
Scott
defied
tyrannical
rule
earning
a
freedom
that
would
influence
politics
and
religion
around
the
world.

has
been

from
her
job
as
chief

for
the
Bakken
County,
ND,
sheriff's
department,
when
her
plan
to
capture
the
serial
killer
known
as
the

went
badly
awry.
Pending

to
probe
the
disappearance
of
three

including
her
son's
friend,
Kyle

Clues

Here,

I
Just
finished
"The
Magpie
Murders",
and
even
though
that's
not
a
magpie
on
the
cover,
I
really
enjoyed
this
old-fashioned
whodunit
with
a
modern
twist.
Library
Journal
(04/01/2017):
Horowitz's
fourth
adult
novel
(after
Trigger
Mortis)
presents
two
mysteries
for
the
price
of
one,
crafting
a
classic
whodunit
within
a
modern
mystery.
Susan
Ryeland
is
an
editor
for
a
small
press
whose
success
rests
on
the
old-fashioned
mystery
novels
of
Alan
Conway.
Returning
from
escorting
an
author
on
a
book
tour,
she
finds
Alan's
latest
Atticus
Pund
manuscript,
Magpie
Murders,
on
her
desk.
Upon
reaching
the
novel's
end,
she
finds
that
the
last
chapter
is
missing.
When
she
informs
her
boss,
Charles
Clover,
he
tells
her
that
Alan
has
committed
suicide.
Susan
searches
for
the
lost
chapter,
and
in
the
process
comes
to
believe
that
Alan's
death
was
no
suicide.
Using
clues
buried
in
the
manuscript,
she
investigates
his
death.
While
Susan
and
the
fictional
Atticus
are
very
different
characters,
they
use
similar
techniques
to
tease
out
the
clues
and
hints
to
bring
each
mystery
to
resolution.
VERDICT
Both
stories
might
stand
alone,
but
combined,
they
result
in
a
delightful
puzzle.
Fans
of
Agatha
Christie
and
the
BBC's
Midsomer
Murders
and
Foyle's
War
(both
written
by
Horowitz)
will
relish
this
double
mystery.
