The Case of the Blinded Birder
Bockerly, England. 1955. Near the sleepy English village of Bockerley, a reclusive birder is shot in the woods. The police declare it a hunting accident and no suspects are brought to trial. The case goes cold until a sparky spinster with a lace umbrella and gossip’s ear finds proof that it was murder. Was it his overbearing mother? His dead wife’s violent brother? A poacher on the run from his past? And why are the police saying less than they know? Help her and her bibliophilic friends solve this classic cozy mystery.
