Cover Art by Tom Stuart and Miriam Nesset

The Murder of Crows is a murder mystery. The Crow family has a history of lawlessness, early on associated with organized crime. They are of Cajun decent, arriving in Louisiana from Acadia, Nova Scotia. The current generation, living in Georgia, also disregards the law, with no eye to the consequences. Additionally, they are exceedingly arrogant and entitled. The mystery of their murders takes years to solve.


"It's been a long time since I've read such a dark mystery. The characters have no redeeming qualities that I could find. Somehow it worked. I enjoyed(?) the story with all its twists and turns. The author left a trail of clues without giving the ending away."

– Neil S.
