About this listen

While returning from Professor Dawson's lecture on haunted places, the last thing Sheriff Jeff McQuede and Dawson expect to encounter is a terrified woman clinging to the railing of Mirabella's Bridge, crying for her lost baby. It looks as if Rae Harris has thrown the infant over the bridge in a fit of despair, but she claims he has been stolen by a ghostly figure she calls Mirabella. Similar to the La Llorona legend Dawson just spoke about, Mirabella was a local pioneer woman who was rumored to have drowned her infant after being abandoned by a lover. At first, McQuede believes Rae was driven by madness, but he soon finds evidence that her story may be true, and the perfectly timed kidnapping of her child may be, in some way, related to lecture attendee and local celebrity Jim Royce and his vast fortune. Crying Woman Bridge is the sixth book in The Jeff McQuede High Country Mystery Series. Each book in the series contains a complete story and can be heard as a stand-alone.

Summary –

Sheriff Jeff McQuede finds himself in the middle of a haunted mystery when he finds a woman crying for her lost baby on a bridge. At first, he thinks she’s gone mad but as Professor Dawson talks more about haunted bridges and their history, he wonders if he himself can help the woman. The more he investigates, the more he realizes her baby may well have been part of an intricate kidnapping ploy aimed at local celebrity Jim Royce and his fortune.
