Blog Tour: Spotlight on A Knot of Sparrows by Cheryl Rees Price
Huge thanks to Rachel's Random Resources for inviting me onto the A Knot Of Sparrows blog tour.
There's something very special about fiction written by Welsh authors. Similarly to Scottish authors there is an inevitable grittiness born of their exposure to expansive rugged landscapes. Combine that with a great community feeling and you know you're onto a good read. In A Knot of Sparrows you can expect a raw sense of place, gritty murder, an intriguing puzzle and fascinating characters ... What more could you ask for?
More than that though is the title. I don't know about you, but any crime novel with a bird in the title has me hooked. There is something creepy and insidious about associating a bird with murder and it gets me every time.
A Knot Of
Sparrows blurb
Welsh detective Winter Meadows takes on a new murder case
There were a lot of things you could
call Stacey Evans. And many of them would be true. And unprintable. But did she
deserve to be murdered?
DI Winter Meadows has no doubt of the
answer when he takes on the case. The crime was violent. The victim helpless.
But the motives are many, and the only clue is a strange word left on Stacey’s
body.
DI Meadows struggles to pierce the
secrecy surrounding the teenager’s busy love life. Was the killer one of her
pursuers acting out of jealousy? Maybe someone’s wife seeking revenge?
But as each suspect is excluded from
the enquiry, and other markings turn up, Meadows is convinced that something
more sinister is afoot.
When another body is found, a veil of
silence descends like a fog upon Gaer Fawr. What more will it take for the
village to give up its secrets?
