What this book is about
National Park Ranger Anna Pigeon is visiting her sister in New York when a body is found at the base of the Statue of Liberty. Anna is pulled into an investigation in the distinctly urban environment of the Liberty-Ellis Island park — a very different setting from the western wilderness that characterizes most of the series. Nevada Barr's ninth Anna Pigeon novel deals with the challenge of placing a character defined by nature in a world of tourists, bridges, and city bureaucracy, while maintaining the series' commitment to the specific environment of the National Park Service.
