5 Star Reviews on Amazon and Goodreads

“This was another excellent entry in this long-running series about a food loving Mountie, his coworkers, and his family. This series has the perfect balance of police procedural, family life, food, philosophy, topical, realistic crime, and a little bit of magic (dream visits from those Windflower dearly loves). There’s enough grit to keep me interested, but not so much that I can’t sleep, or that I regret reading the book. The hard parts are balanced by good friendships and uplifting conversation and hope.”

“All of this makes you feel as if you are coming home, once again spending time with a man you’ve come to respect and appreciate and enjoy.”

“I think this may be my favorite one yet. This is book 17 in the Sgt. Windflower series and it’s another great read about life in Canada and a member of the RCMP.”

“This author knows how to keep the plot moving swiftly to keep readers hooked. You will enjoy spending time with Windflower, a hero who’s clever, brave, and endlessly resourceful.”

“‘Together we are much stronger than trying to fight on our own’ – A Superb novel!”

A Change in Plans

RCMP officer Winston Windflower’s rare afternoon off gets interrupted when a hit and run turns into murder and he must pull together a team of Mounties from Newfoundland to resolve the crime. Following the money and fentanyl— and bodies—Windflower and his team join forces with police officers in southern Ontario to take down an international drug-smuggling ring.

Windflower must face personal doubts and fears when fellow Mountie Fil Romano is kidnapped. While the higher-ups at HQ make plans to give safe passage to the drug lords in return for Romano’s life, Windflower worries Romano will get caught in the crossfire. Windflower again looks to his friends and allies for help in the difficult hours and days ahead.
