First Excerpt from A Twist of Fortune: “The Ode to Newfoundland”
We’re very excited to share the first excerpt from the new Sgt. Windflower Mystery, A Twist of Fortune. It’s called “The Ode to Newfoundland.” Hope you enjoy it.
The Ode to Newfoundland

Let Me Fish Off Cape St. Mary’s: Excerpt from A Twist of Fortune, New Sgt. Windflower Mystery
Let me Fish Off Cape St. Mary’s is one of the most beloved ballads of Newfoundland and Labrador. It is a hauntingly beautiful song that was written by Otto P. Kelland of Flatrock, Newfoundland in 1947, just before the province decided by referendum to join Canada. See below for the lyrics and a version of the song as recorded by the band Ryan’s Fancy.
Here is an excerpt from the new Sgt. Windflower Mystery, A Twist of Fortune.

A Twist of Fortune
There is no better feeling than the one a writer feels when they have delivered a final document to their publisher. So I am feeling blessed and relieved to have sent A Twist of Fortune, the latest book in the Sgt. Windflower Mystery Series, to my publisher of choice, Baico Publishing and sit back and relax, right?
The Walker on the Cape
