IT WILL KEEP YOU GUESSING

Five Crows Silver is a riveting, taut crime drama that will keep you guessing to the last page. When young girls go missing throughout Nova Scotia, Liverpool RCMP Corporal Cliff Graham and special investigator Sergeant Greg Paris come to realize they are playing a game of cat and mouse. The question is who is the cat, and who is the mouse?

HAUNTING

"With Five Crows Silver, Oickle crafts a haunting tale in which RCMP forensic specialist, Sergeant Gary Paris finds himself investigating a series of the most horrific deaths imaginable. Five Crows Silver is a thriller as relentless in its suspense as are the winter storms under whose cover cruel and brutal crimes are committed. RCMP must puzzle together far-ranging clues that come from an ancient woman seer, a crime scene clue, and the frantic activity of five crows while racing against time to save a victim's life."
