Night of the Coyote
12 August 2023
Jessica Fletcher is in New Mexico, visiting with an artist friend and learning more about the local history. They are in a place called Chaco Springs (a fictional place, although see my comments at the bottom of this post for where it's likely to be located) and there is a nearby historical settlement called Silverville - a town that was abandoned in 1905 when its silver mine was tapped out. Silverville is now a tourist attraction that performs a re-enactment of the last stage coach robbery and is home to the Cutter McGee museum, devoted to the robber. When the brains behind the rebooted ghost town, Max Teller, gets killed, Jessica is on the case and on a treasure hunt.

A mystic sheriff who disappears, shamans, lost treasure, and Wild West town - what is there not to like? It's a livelier tale, and quite fun. Graham Green as the sheriff is really good - his character is quite quirky yet wise.
