A Pitying of Doves, Paperback Book

A Pitying of Doves Paperback

Paperback

Description

With murder, everyone pays a price ... Why would a killer ignore expensive jewellery and take a pair of Turtledoves as the only bounty? This is only one of the questions that piques Chief Inspector Domenic Jejeune's interest when an attache with the Mexican Consulate is found murdered alongside the director of a local bird sanctuary.

The fact that the director's death has opened up a full-time research position studying birds hasn't eluded Jejeune, either.

Could this be the escape from policing that the celebrated detective has been seeking?

Even if it is, Jejeune knows he owes it to the victims to solve the case first.

But a trail that weaves from embittered aviary owners to suspicious bird sculptors only seems to be leading him farther from the truth.

Meanwhile, Jejeune is discovering that diplomatic co-operation and diplomatic pressure go hand in hand. With two careers hanging in the balance, the stakes have never been higher for Inspector Jejeune. And this time, even bringing a killer to justice may not provide the closure he's looking for.
