Arrived quickly and and is an awesome book. This is one of my favorite authors and I was pleased to find her book.

Skye Kathleen Moody's second novel about Venus Diamond, Fish and Wildlife agent, set in the Pacific Northwest, is a riveting and thrilling mystery. Venus heads to Fern, Washington, home of an exclusive perfume corporation, to investigate the murder of a Canadian lepidopterist. Moody again demonstrates her depth of research into environmental issues surrounding endangered species and fragile ecosystems. Her cast of interesting, quirky, believable, and resourceful characters and her well-woven plot make this novel not only an excellent and exciting mystery, but a novel which promotes a thoughtful consideration of some of the major issues surrounding modern society and its interaction with earth's ecosystem.
