Birds & Bees owner Amy Simms will need help from her fine-feathered friends when an uncommon bird sighting plunges her into a hornet's nest of black magic and murder most foul . . .
Amy's enjoying a rare moment of relaxation when a customer shows up seeking her expertise in ID-ing an unusual bird she's seen flying around her wooded cabin at the edge of town.
