As I read Shields' book, I was struck by the inaccuracies related to the Maxwell case, and there are numerous ones in addition to the caliber of the handgun. He states that Harper Lee spent a year at the Horseshoe Bend motel conducting research in the mid-1980s. She did not. She was at the motel in 1978 for approximately four months. Originally from the Alex City area, I returned on April 29th because my father-in-law died. I stayed at the Horseshoe Bend in the room next to Harper Lee for about a month. We spoke every day, sometimes multiple times. She said she had been at the motel about three months when I arrived. We both stayed until near the end of May. She left a couple of days before I did to go to her sister's home in Eufaula.<br /><br />Before she left, she invited my husband, his brother and myself into her room for drinks one night. She wanted to talk to me about the Maxwell case since she had learned that I grew up knowing the Burns family. They lived on the Russell property just below our farm. Ophelia (she was married to Bus Burns, Robert Burns' brother, when I knew them) was married to Maxwell at the time of his death and her foster child Shirley, Maxwell's last victim, was a teenager as I was. Shields refers to Shirley as Maxwell's niece at least twice, which is incorrect. She was his last wife's foster daughter. Shields also says that Robert Burns shot Maxwell in the back. He shot him in the face three times (supposedly Maxwell was wearing a bullet-proof vest). Burns stood on the pew in front of Maxwell to shoot him. Burns shot him as he returned to his seat after going up to view the body. By eyewitness accounts, Maxwell slumped backwards in the pew, not as Shields writes "he fell to the floor."<br /><br />Considering the multiple inaccurate statements in these few pages of the book, I have to be suspicious of information he presents as facts in the remainder of the book.
