Fly Fishing Can Be Fatal — David Leitz

It was spring in Vermont. The tree frogs were singing, the trout were stirring, and the biggest fish of all was coming to Whitefork Lodge...

Call it a deal with the devil. Max Addams needed the money. And one very powerful man--the head of a Cosa Nostra crime family--needed to fish. So, Max closed down the lodge and let in the Mob, all while a mystery of small-town politics and murder was roiling the waters of Loon, Vermont.

With Max's friend, the mayor, besieged by opponents calling her soft on crime, crime boss Vincent d'Antella, his sizzling mistress, and a cast of hardcore bodyguards are not boosting civic pride. And while Max hopes against hope that a bountiful season will keep the peace, someone has other ideas. For in a place where fishing is strictly catch and release, killing people may be the sport of the day.
