The Macaw Saw the Murder

My cockatiel Chicken is dressed to impress in his tuxedo flight suit, but I'm one nervous bird mama. We're hosting a gala to raise money for Half Moon Cross's only small bird rescue, and I'm about to bring Chicken on stage to show off his newest skillcommunicating via the Bird Talk app.

As host of the Parrots of the Caribbean pirate-themed tour, I don't often get stage fright. Before we can unveil Chicken's latest talent, we need to get his sidekick, scarlet macaw Ruby, ready to join him on stage.

Ruby's snubbed me and the app, but I'm hoping she'll put her best beak forward.

When I get to the private suite where she's relaxing before her appearance, I discover she has an uninvited guest.

Eleanor Greeley, the wife of the mayor. And she's dead.

But it appears that Ruby was the real target of this crime.

Bartender Carlos is taken into custody, but there's no way he's guilty. And the mayor's convinced I have something that belongs to his wife.

The only one who knows what happened is Rubyand she's not talking.

Chicken and I are on a mission to find the culpritbut identifying the killer is only the beginning of this case. We need to make sure all the birds on the island are safe. We'll uncover family secrets, lies, an exotic smuggling ringand who's behind it.
