A weekend visit to picturesque Newfoundland by a large crew of outlaw bikers leaves behind another mess for Sgt. Windflower to clean up. This time he's facing violence, murder, mystery and intrigue. This adventure has Windflower questioning everything he thought he knew. There are troubles on the home front, cutbacks in the policing budget, old friends leaving and new ones not quite here yet. Windflower is seeking to find answers in territory that is both dangerous and unfamiliar. This instalment in the Sgt. Windflower Mystery series has our hero dashing all over the beautiful little island of Newfoundland. Along the way he never wavers in his pursuit of justice. But he stills tries to find a way to enjoy the natural beauty that lays all around him, and to bring out the best from everybody he meets.A Long Ways from Home is about more than just homicides or the dirty dealings of outlaw bikers. It is also about helping people and communities face up to and overcome new and very difficult challenges. Windflower relies on his friends and allies, including some four-legged ones, to help him and them find the answers. He also discovers that we are never really alone, even when we are a long ways from home.... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

***** Why is this book so hard to find on Amazon?
I would never have encountered Sgt. Windflower if it wasn't for a giveaway, and that's an awful shame! It seems that I stumbled into the middle of a series but it really doesn't matter as it's a great read. Good law enforcement work and diligence is similar the world around, and the impact of financial cutbacks is disgustingly the same as well. What sets Windflower and his fellows apart is the beautiful land they serve and protect as described by the author as well as the structure of their organization. Well, except for the officers themselves. I can't imagine having to be transferred all around the vast expanse of Canada, but I'm glad that Windflower gets to stay in Newfoundland and maintain a life with good relationships while doing the work he loves.
About that. The plot is mainly about police work, murders, and organized crime. The publisher's blurb gives some idea of what to expect but the book is so much better than that! No spoilers here, just go ahead and enjoy it!
Well, I'm off to read the first in series now! (
