At the heart of every murder, there's a child crying... Kirsten Waller, the acclaimed and well known poet, is found dead in the bath in her remote cottage in Cornwall. The police claim it is suicide, but her daughter Sam refuses to believe her mother would take her own life and sets out to prove it was murder. At the time of Kirsten's death, she was working on her new masterpiece - a poem called 'The Murder Bird'. Only a few people knew of its existence and what it was about. But now the poem is missing together with her journal. It is this poem which holds the key to the mystery and what really happened in the final minutes of Kirsten's life, and Sam desperately needs to find it. She's convinced Kirsten's ex-husband, Raph Howes, knows more than he admits. He certainly knew about the poem. As Sam determines to uncover the secrets around her mother's violent death, and risks her own life to get to the truth, she discovers much more than she ever expected.… (altro)

The characters are centered around a decent plot. I liked getting to know the people of the book and was taken on a journey through the reasons Sam does not believe her mother Kristen a well known poet, killed herself.
I would recommend this to people who love British mysteries. This is my first read written by Miss Hines, she is now on my new authors list.
*** I received this book from the publisher for an honest review**** ( )

I really liked that the main character, although she is dead, was a poetess and that the title of this book was the title of her poem. The storyline itself was good and my two favorite characters were Sam and Johnny. At times the conversations were a little stunted and the mystery a little convoluted, but on the whole I was entertained and I see a good future for this writer as she develops greater skills in her craft. Believe this is an author to watch. ( )
