FFB: THE BIRDWATCHER, William Shaw

 

When the neighbor and fellow birdwatcher of a police sergeant is murdered, Bill gets pulled into the investigation and also into the life of his new boss and her daughter. This was a very absorbing book with good characters,a nice ambience, and a past story that was as good as the contemporary one.  I was disappointed that although the series continues, it seems to be with the crime squad but not the police sergeant. But maybe I am wrong about that.

Very good series. Yes, Sgt. Alex Cupidi (and her assistant) is the main character of the series, and her difficult daughter Zoe is in the books too. Zoe and Bill remain friendly when he gets out of jail and moves back to the area, but he onny has a minor role in the rest of the books.

I loved this book. I have read the first two books that concentrate on DS Alex Cupidi and I liked both of those because of the excellent setting and the characters, but The Birdwatcher was a very special book.
