Barr, Nevada Deep South(Anna Pigeon Novel) Berkley February 1, 200 Paperback used; very good After her urban adventures on New York's Ellis Island in Liberty Falling, p ark ranger Anna Pigeon has finally "heeded the ticking of her bureaucratic clock" and signed on for a promotion in the boonies: district ranger on the Natchez Trace Parkway. Anna's mental images of Mississippi come from black -and-white stock photos from the civil rights movement of the 1960s, so it' s not surprising that she finds it beautiful but strange, its residents cau ght in a teased-hair, fried-food time warp. But she's got more than an unhe althy diet to worry about--as the first female district ranger on the Trace , she immediately encounters more than a few good ol' boys and local miscre ants who resent her authority, especially after a 17-year-old beauty is mur dered on a booze-soaked prom night near the Trace, her head covered with a KKK-style sheet. Price: 3.50 USD
Barr, Nevada Liberty Falling (Anna Pigeon Mysteries ) Avon March 1, 2000 Paperback used: very good Anna is in Manhattan to look after her sister Molly, seriously ill with pne umonia and a kidney infection. Pigeon moves in with a ranger friend who has a place on Ellis Island. There's not much natural wildlife unless you coun t her feathered namesakes, but she still manages to find a lot to contempla te--especially the suspicious suicide of a teenage girl who leaps from Libe rty's ledge, followed not long after by the security guard who tried to sto p her. But Anna's snooping puts her own life in jeopardy. She survives seve ral attacks and a near drowning--events as frightening as any of the fires, floods, and hurricanes from her past adventures. Barr neatly ties up her p lot--ending with a brilliant chase scene across the waters from Manhattan t o Liberty Island. What next for Anna? Is there a national park in Las Vegas ? Price: 3.00 USD
