A body on the dock. A brass ring Winifred didn't ask for. A crow with an agenda.

Winifred Baxter runs the most organized botanical apothecary on the Maine coast and has a crow named Copernicus who is not her familiar. He just happens to collect evidence, rearrange her shelves, and be right about everything.

When a murder lands in her harbor town and Copernicus starts bringing her clues she can't explain, Winifred finds herself investigating a property dispute that goes back forty years — and a killer who has been hiding in plain sight.

The first Winifred Baxter Mystery. For fans of cozy mysteries with a side of dry wit and one very opinionated crow.
