Breaking into the fly-fishing world on one of the most prolific rivers in the Lower Forty-Eight is tough for a woman. Finding peace and learning to forgive can prove even tougher, especially when hurting the one you love muddies the waters. Rose Marie Davidson grew up as an outdoorsy little girl, always wanting to please her father by catching more fish than her older brother. As an adult, she has learned about fly-fishing and is pursuing her dream of becoming a professional guide in Craig, MT, taking folks fishing on the world-renowned Missouri River. Chasing that dream, however, comes with a cost as she spends much of her time competing with the boys not only on the river but also in the shops and bars, battling for respect and dignity. Trick Patterson is also on the trajectory to live out his dream of having a career in the NFL. As their paths intersect, they find themselves in need of redemption for previous mistakes and tragic events that might derail their plans. Death of a Fly is an epic tale of love, redemption, and forgiveness, full of twists and turns as told from the perspective of a real Montana fly-fishing guide. Many of the anecdotes are actual true stories, weaving a fictional tapestry of these two characters' journeys. Landmarks and certain hangouts will be familiar to readers who have visited Central Montana, and the detailed descriptions of the fly-fishing culture and methodology will inevitably pull the reader in, even if the reader has never straightened out a cast. You will fall in love with the characters and root for them right up to the end, and I promise, the outcome will shock you.
Autorenporträt
Growing up in Northern Minnesota, Russell learned to love the outdoors at an early age. Fishing and hunting were passions that motivated his decision to move to Montana to live and work in the outdoors, where he taught people to fly fish and wrote about his experiences in a blog called The Montana Dream Blog. His studies in Sociology, as well as his travels around the world with a musical production, influenced his perspective. This perspective is reflected in his writings. Many of his writings are real-life accounts of his own struggles with a twist.
