SYNOPSIS: It’s a bad day at the Bide-A-Wee Inn. It begins with the attack of a rare European Eagle Owl and gets worse with three murder attempts on the life of Laurence Boothsby, a little known poet. From a slingshot to a bag of flour, anything becomes a weapon, and everyone—a mysterious Countess, a spoiled young heiress, a juvenile delinquent, an American billionaire named “The Ronald” and his two apprentices, and the proverbial butler—is a suspect. Love triangles, lies, and hidden motives come to light under the investigation of Inspector Barish, who mixes intelligent detective work with American cop show flair to get the would-be killer.
