Publisher Description

Award-winning novelist Nevada Barr sends her remarkable sleuth, Ranger Anna Pigeon, to spectacular national parks to solve baffling crimes. In Liberty Falling, Anna leaves the rugged countryside of Colorado to face the concrete wilds of New York City. As soon as she hears her older sister is gravely ill, Anna rushes to the Big Apple to sit at her bedside. Between hospital visits, she relaxes at the park service quarters on Liberty Island and explores the crumbling ruins of Ellis Island where thousands of immigrants once were processed. Rest escapes her, however, when a teenage girl mysteriously plunges to her death from the Statue of Liberty-and Anna herself suffers a dangerous tumble. The Park Service claims the falls could only be accidents, but Anna wonders if there is a common purpose behind them. Nevada Barr's vivid descriptions and narrator Barbara Rosenblat's dramatic performance transport you to New York City to share in all the danger and the excitement.

"Wow, this was a fun read, and I can't wait to go to New York City and witness the city from Anna's perspective. It was also an interesting plot, although I don't think the villains were that well developed in this one. It was more about Anna and her sister. On to the next one in the Summer is Ending Pooltime Mystery Reading series..."

    " Not the best in the series but I seemed to have liked it better than Melodie and Ann did. As always, Barbara Rosenblat did a good job with the narration. "

    " The star of this book had me a little lost, but I think it redeemed itself in the end. I really enjoy Frederick character in this book. I am glad that things worked out as they did. Is there anything this woman can't do? "

    " Anna is on her own again. Quite a loner. And again has a close brush with death several times. Seems to be a constant in each book. All came together quickly at the end. Cam't wait to see if Frederick marries the doctor. "

    " As always with the Anna Pigeon series, I thoroughly enjoy learning about different national parks, and this book kept that promise. It never occurred to me that Ellis Island & the Statue of Liberty were national parks - duh! I love the inside glimpses Nevada Barr provided into these national monuments. "

    " Long on whine, short on action, lethargic on suspense. Not the best Pigeon book in the series. Still it did get me interested enough to get me to do some research on Ellis Island. I found pictures and video that agreed with the descriptions in the book. "

    " Nevada Barr is always a great read and not only do you get to hear the adventures of Anna but you get to learn about the different national parks. Having been to liberty it was even more of a visual aid when reading about the different parts. "

About Nevada Barr

Nevada Barr was born in the small western town of Yerington, Nevada, and raised on a mountain airport in the Sierras. Pushed out of the nest, she fell into theatre, receiving her BA in speech and drama and her MFA in acting before making the pilgrimage to New York City, then Minneapolis. For eighteen years she worked on stage, in commercials and industrial training films, and doing voiceovers for radio. During this time she became interested in the environmental movement and began working in National Parks across the country during the summers. Woven throughout these seemingly disparate careers was the written word. Nevada wrote and presented campfire stories, taught storytelling, and was a travel writer and restaurant critic. She has won both the Agatha and Anthony awards for best first mystery.
