Here’s an early review of Too Close for Comfort
“Too Close for Comfort is the latest adventure for Sgt. Windflower, and it’s a wonderfully engaging read. Throughout the entire series Mike Martin has gradually developed his main character and in this he is brought right up to date into the resilience and mental health well-being era. Having read the series I still marvel at the way the author puts everyday life and relationships in Grand Bank at the forefront, and wonderfully weaves a really good mystery/thriller into it.
Sgt. Windflower may be a novice “dream weaver” (and yes, his dreams play a large part in this), but the author also weaves his magic between catching an arsonist, wanted criminals from Europe, and – gold. The situations are engaging, tense, and thoroughly believable, but at the end of the day, Sgt. Windflower has to come to terms with it all and make peace with himself.
This is another excellent book from Mike Martin – may you “dream-on”.”
Too Close for Comfort
Winston Windflower is back with the RCMP, this time as Acting inspector, hoping life in the tiny town of Grand Bank, Newfoundland, remains calm. But things get stirred up right away when there are suspicious fires and an outsider’s body is found in one of them. Now, they have a murder to solve.
Things get even stranger when there appears to be connections to a major gold heist on the mainland and lots of nefarious characters that start to cause havoc for the local police officers. To add to the suspense, Windflower receives a message in a dream that his friend and colleague, Eddie Tizzard, is going to be in mortal danger.
Windflower must help protect Eddie and those he loves while tracking down a murderer and reassuring the community that they are safe from danger.
Once again, this is a story filled with both intrigue and suspense but also warmth, humour and a love of family and community.
