Synopsis

Before Shetland and Vera, Ann Cleeves wrote the George and Molly Palmer-Jones series following remarkable mysteries in a birdwatching community—now available for the first time in the US.

A rare and unrecorded sea bird captures all the birders attention while right under their noses the most fanatical birder of them all disappears . . . only for Greg Franks’ corpse to later be found floating in the sea, the head bludgeoned.

Had it not been for Greg, amateur detective George Palmer-Jones would not have been on the bird watching trip in Cornwall to the first place. Greg Franks’ anxious parents had hired him to try and persuade their errant son to return home. George would have turned the case down flat but the offer of a free weekend of bird watching was too tempting to resist. Now, he must shoulder the burden of discovering why the young man had been murdered.

Who hated Franks enough to kill him? It seems almost everyone on the trip has a motive and George has his work cut out for him.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

Goodreads review by Viragored on December 13, 2023

A good story, well put together, but.... It's an old book, from the 80s, and at a guess it's been scanned into digital form - hence the numerous wrong words throughout and one unreadable paragraph. The lead character seems to be beyond obsessed, almost bipolar, and to me not quite believable. But the m......more

Goodreads review by JACQUELINE on October 01, 2023

An unusual read which left me wondering all the way through. For the reader it was a book that you really didn’t want to put down because you wanted to know how it would end. The author did a great job of keeping the reader on the edge of their seat while waiting to see what happens in the end. It wa......more
