Star Nose: A Cooper North Mystery

He’s only seven, and killers hunt him.

They murdered his mother.

He is frightened.

Cooper North retired as prosecutor, but she’s still in the game—she tries to protect the child, but he trusts no person. He speaks only to Cooper’s corgi, Henry, because Henry will never reveal his secrets.

Noone knows who ordered this child’s death, not even the killers hunting him.

Meanwhile, murder follows murder in this once peaceful town in the Green Mountains.

As Cooper and her police associates desperately follow leads, a stranger checks into the hotel. He seems affable, but he hides an arsenal in his room.

Cooper follows the killers’ zigzagging trail, from northern New England to Florida’s Gulf coast, to the Bronx, and far beyond.

Then, in a snowstorm, in an isolated farmhouse, the situation erupts—who will survive is uncertain.

And, after that….

This story keeps twisting—you won’t guess the ending.

TWO MORE READERS’ COMMENTS

—FIVE STARS
I read and enjoyed the first mystery in this series (SPIDER’S WEB IN THE GREEN MOUNTAINS), and this book was everything I hoped it would be. Once again, Cooper North, a retired prosecutor turned college professor, and the other characters are wonderfully drawn. With lots to think about along the way, the narrative accelerates to a conclusion that is logical, realistic, and surprising all at the same time.

–FIVE STARS The welcome return of Cooper North!
Cooper is a unique and often unwitting heroine of a human being, and in this latest installment she is joined by more of the town’s characters, who also become more real to readers as they reappear in her small town community. Here, the out of towners are also skillfully developed and equally compelling characters. In my reading, I develop my own theories about who among them are the most likely villain-candidates, and delightfully, I am surprised again. I’m keeping my mental map of the town of Dill for the next adventure!
