Lethally Nuts
(2021)(The fifth book in the Maggie Flanagan Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Amber Boffin
What could possibly link a woolly mammoth tusk to a parrot? Maggie Flanagan finds out when she unravels the mystery behind not just one death…but two.
Exactly a year ago, Maggie settled back in Foxton, the little village in Canada where she grew up. She loves every bit of her new life. Even her photography business is slowly picking up.
Content with her latest portrait, Maggie hurries to deliver it to elderly Holly Rigby. By chance, Maggie prevents the theft of Lulu, Holly’s old African Gray parrot, but arrives too late to save a man.
Strangely, all the trails Maggie follows point toward her father’s past, and in particular to a fatality that occurred decades ago, in the Yukon, on a woolly mammoth excavation site. Her father’s time capsule indicates that he had been investigating the death.
Are the two deaths truly linked and related in some way to mammoth tusks? But why steal a parrot?
Maggie calls upon her childhood friend Denis Partridge, the local dentist, to answer her burning questions…but will the answers lead her to the truth?
Genre: Cozy Mystery
