Book Description

This intriguing collection of eleven short stories The Feather and Other Tales from Pembina County centers on Homer Swensen, the sheriff of Pembina County, North Dakota, who combines his interest in birds with his profession of solving crimes. In these stories, Homer faces a variety of crimes that most of us could not even contemplate. In the story "The Feather," the sheriff is confronted by a bank robbery committed by a pair of men who have baffled the FBI on six previous robberies. Homer finds a pinkish feather in the grill of a car and recognizes it as coming from a hybrid population of the Northern Flicker, unique to eastern North Dakota, which allows him to identify the thieves. In "Excalibur," he traces a three-hundred-year-old Amati violin to a Duluth gangster unjustly accused of murder. In "Sylvia," he is pursued by a divorcee who hopes to entrap him through his interest in nature. Homer nearly falls victim to the mushroom poison that has killed a mycologist - a scientist who studies fungi - in the story "Amanita." And in "The Ice Woman," a woman's body is found frozen solid after two nights in subzero weather. She was strangled by someone using Homer's scarf, so he works with the coroner to unravel her last hours and identify the real killer.

Book Description

We walked and we walked and it seemed like hours before we finally made it to the cemetery and, since it was the first cemetery Eddie and Robert had ever visited, it took a lot of enticing to lure them in. “Stop bawling,” Aunt Katie screamed as she grabbed her sons by their scrawny arms and started to drag them through the half-opened gates. “We’re only going to be here a few minutes to meet your grandpa, and then we’ll go home.” Well, the minute Eddie heard the words, “meet your grandpa,” he let out a scream that could have awakened grandpa from his twenty-year nap. And as soon as Eddie started bawling, Robert grabbed hold of the iron gate with a resolution that would have done Hercules proud. Meanwhile, I decided that maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to say hi to grandpa after all. Maybe we should just toss the pretty plastic flowers over the fence and run like hell. “We’re not going to see grandpa,” my mother said, “we’re just going to pay him a little respect. He’s dead and he’s buried and he’s going to stay that way! Now get a grip and follow me.”
