Praise for The Birder Murder:
“Northrop’s prose is crisp and long on banter . . . More, please!”
—Kirkus
“A top-notch cozy.”
—Publishers Weekly
“A charming cozy, with a delightful, one-of-a-kind protagonist, framed by details of running a B&B and birding.”
—Booklist
“A handful of well-placed red herrings keep the mystery engaging, while several humorous jabs at overzealous true crime fans add to the novel’s charm. The journey through a picturesque lakeside town in the Berkshires is thoroughly enjoyable from beginning to end. VERDICT Sure to appeal to fans of Richard Osman’s ‘Thursday Murder Club’ books, this wholesome and entertaining novel should soar to the top of any cozy mystery recommendation list.”
—Library Journal
“Northrop gives readers what they didn’t know they wanted—a story that’s part Murder, She Wrote and part The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. I loved it.”
—Alex Segura, bestselling author of Alter Ego
“Birdwatching and murder may seem an unlikely combination, but Michael Northrop makes it work beautifully. Birder Murder is clever, funny and suspenseful, with a wonderfully eccentric cast of characters and a sleuth in Figman whom you’ll be happy to follow wherever the clues lead.”
—C.C. Benison, Arthur Ellis Award-winning author of the Father Christmas mysteries
“The local references to the Berkshires provide an alluring backdrop. This is a fun read that has you wondering who done it right to the end.”
—Linda Leuzzi, Author of Car Dogs and My Year With the Italian Girl
