another great Sergeant Windflower story

In a small Canadian town, RCMP Sergeant Windflower keeps the peace, and enjoying life, while expecting their first child w his wife. The quiet is disrupted when a young girl goes missing and Windflower and team are trying to determine if she just wondered away or something more sinister is at play. The investigation takes them through several towns, in terrible weather, and leads to a homicide. Lots of twists and turns...and great food, as usual...lol...I can smell the stew. This author torments me with the food descriptions...but that's not the only reason that I enjoy these books. These stories are about small town life and the importance of family and remembering your roots. Windflower is the kind of down-to-earth lawman that we all would want looking out for us...and he always gets the bad guys!

Small Town Murder Mystery - Crime

The snowstorms in Canada can stop everything, except murder. RCMP Sergeant Windflower is faced with a missing girl, a huge snowstorm, and a homicide all while waiting for the birth of their first child. Sergeant Windflower and his team are tracking this young girl down following leads that take them through several towns and deserted areas. While the snow doesn’t stop the murderer, it doesn’t stop the RMCPs either!

The author, Mike Martin creates a small town with close community ties and feelings that only those from small towns will understand. Martin deliberately and subtly reminds us that small towns are cozy, slow-moving, and filled with caring folks and that nothing and no one slips by unnoticed! The characters are detailed and fully developed with many small-town features. The plot flows smoothly with a couple of plot twists that prove unexpected.

The narrator, Francis G. Kearney does a fantastic job of further enhancing the story with his unique voice. He projects the personality of each character through his cadence and careful pitch. He speaks clearly and consistently. He juggled the balance of the main character, Sergeant Windflower from loving husband to police officer very well.

I honestly did not realize this was book 6 in the series! The author does not rely on the listener knowing about his past books and the history of characters to engage the listener and tell his story. The main characters are so well developed that they flow naturally through his writing. I found the small-town police and characters to be rich and entertaining, as well as challenging the stereotypical beliefs that small-town folks are somehow less experienced. I enjoyed this book and hope to hear others by Martin and performed by Kearney!

There were no issues with the production or quality of this audiobook.

A well-written, entertaining read

A Tangled Web (Sgt. Windflower Mystery #6), my first enjoyable read from author Mike Martin. Well-written with intriguing primary characters and a captivating storyline. “I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. Francis G. Kearney's narration with his hint of an accent is perfect for this book. I'll definitely be reading more from this author and since I discovered I already own Beneath the Surface: Sgt. Windflower Mystery Series, Book 3 I look forward to reading it next. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).
