Winner: Mystery Writers of America McCloy Award. National finalist: Women's Fiction Writers Association "Rising Star" contest. "Deadly Turn gives the forest a voice. I haven't read a book from cover to cover in years, but this novel delivered two days of nonstop suspense. Powerful human relationships intermingle with accurate descriptions of forests, ponds, rivers and streams; birds and the people who care about them become symbols of strength and resilience. From the opening sentence to the last, despite crimes perpetrated against it, Neily captures Maine's Northern Forest with fierce love and inspired storytelling." - Michael J. Good, Down East Nature Tours, Bar Harbor, Maine"I loved everything about this novel as it weaves a murder mystery around a destructive wind project in one of Maine's most beautiful places. Sandy's characters are very real, and she includes lots of great stories about birds, wildlife, and life in rural Maine. I guarantee, once you start reading, you won't be able to stop." - George Smith, conservation/environmental advocate
