Bone Island Maggie

“Bone Island Maggie is as classic a Key West character as you are likely to meet either in a book or strolling Duval Street. Her smile may be toothless, but her bite certainly isn’t as she doggedly tracks down the brutal killer of an old friend. It’s a zany romp that puts Maggie and her faithful ex-Marine chauffeur on a trail that runs from Alabama Jacks on Card Sound Road to the family paladares of Havana. The romp takes a serious turn when a shocking twist causes Maggie to deal with the loss of yet another friend. All-in-all a fun read.”
- V. C. Weeks, Code of Honor

She’s embroiled in a murder mystery, an adventure that will entertain as much as it informs. “Great fun,” says Marcy Birdweather, Marcy’s Musings.
