Publisher's summary

Julia Lanchester is flying high. She's nesting with her boyfriend, Michael Sedgwick, and she's found her niche as manager of the tourist center in her picturesque British village. Thanks to all her hard work, visitor traffic was up - way up. Her reward is an even more hectic schedule. Michael's busy, too, traveling all over as the personal assistant to Julia's father, celebrity ornithologist Rupert Lanchester. With precious little time together, Julia's romantic weekend with Michael can't come soon enough.

But the getaway is spoiled when Julia's ex-husband is found murdered on her boss's estate. And after a witness reports seeing Michael near the scene of the crime, the press descends, printing lies and wreaking havoc. To protect Julia, Michael vanishes into thin air, leaving her to pick up the slack on Rupert's show and track down the real killer - even if it means putting herself in the flight path of a vicious predator.

I like the series but

I like the plots of this series. The English countryside is fascinating and so are the bird facts. I really like the supporting characters. Julia, the main character,acts like an immature hothead, but she does have personal growth as a character, so I'm hopeful that she will grow more in future books. Maybe get some therapy. She also has good relationships with her friends and coworkers and is not in competition with other women, so that's refreshing. The actor's performance is outstanding

Most Enjoyable

The Rook was the star of this story. Also the characters from books 1 and 2 were familiar
and well written. I have enjoyed these stories as cozy mysteries, solid British whodonits,

Worst book ever

I really could not listen to this even though I tried. The plot was just too much of a stretch to make any sense at all. No one was believable—especially when the author took the male lead out of the picture on a ridiculous premise. No, nothing redeemed it. I skipped ahead and then to the end, and missed nothing.
