About this listen
"McInerney expertly sets the pace in scene after scene, driving listeners ever closer to the complicated answers at the heart of this mystery." —AudioFile on A Borrowing of Bones
The sixth Mercy Carr Mystery in which Mercy and Elvis must prove the innocence of a new friend accused of murder.
Record snow and sleet and rain are pummeling Vermont and a wild boar has escaped from an exclusive hunting club nearby—but that won’t stop a very pregnant and very bored Mercy Carr from hiking her beloved woods with her loyal dog Elvis. She’s supposed to be decorating the nursery and helping her mother plan the baby shower, but she’d much rather be playing Scrabble with Homer Grant, a word-loving, shotgun-toting hermit living deep in the forest. But when she and Elvis drop by Homer’s cabin for their weekly game, they arrive to find an unknown dead man—and no sign of Homer.
As they search the woods, Mercy discovers a patch of devastation that could only be left behind by wild boar. She’s relieved when Elvis tracks Homer, injured but alive. But Homer’s troubles are far from over, as he’s still the number one suspect and he remembers nothing of the attack. When another corpse with a link to Homer is found, Mercy is determined to help her friend, an effort complicated by the unexpected arrival of her young cousin Tandie, sent by Mercy’s mother to keep an eye on her until the baby is born.
As the floods worsen, Troy and Susie Bear are called out with all the other first responders, and Mercy finds herself alone at Grackle Tree Farm with a concussed Homer, Tandie, and Elvis. As waters rise and the wild boar rampages, Mercy realizes that the murderer is out there ready to strike again, this time much closer to home.
A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

This book is an outstanding addition to the series. I really couldn’t put it down. The mystery keeps Mercy relatively close to home, but that doesn’t stop things happening along the way on trail to solving not just one mystery but two. On top of the mysteries there is a baby to plan for. I must say I love Grace, talking about a mama bear and soon to be a grandma bear. I can’t wait for the the next book Well done Paula Munier.

A nice balance of action and puzzle solving
Engaging characters, plenty of action, and a fascinating literary puzzle. I liked the juxtaposition of the academic, military, and corporate worlds in the mystery, and the story showcases the way Mercy has grown as a character since the beginning of the series. And of course it is wonderful to hang out with Elvis and SuzyBear.

I love this series and the special relationship between Mercy and Elvis! Troy and Susie Bear also shine. Baby gets a name too! I loved the storyline and Latin blurbs regarding The Odyssey. Other endearing characters made appearances in this book too and some new characters appeared.

I love the series. I like Mercy as a strong, independent woman but that she is able to maintain beautiful feminine qualities as well. We can be both - and the world needs the best of us.
