Murder At the Powderhorn Ranch
“For me, and most fly fishers I know, just being on a fast-moving stream, surrounded by nature, is success enough.
After trying a variety of flies, I reeled in my line and slowly walked along the edge of the Cebolla in search of a deeper pool where trout might congregate, or a fallen log beneath which they often take refuge. I found neither after walking a few hundred yards, and decided to return to my cabin. I stepped up onto a relatively flat bit of land and had taken steps away from the creek... when something caught my eye. I turned and looked closer. It was a long metal object lying on a patch of close-clipped grass. I crouched and examined it. Could this be the weapon used to stab Paul Molloy to death?
I straightened up and looked around. I didn’t want to touch it, of course, but also didn’t want to leave it unattended. But then I saw the head wrangler, Joe Walker, walking a horse from a small paddock where sick members of the herd were quarantined.
“Joe,” I shouted.
He saw me and waved.MoreLess
