5 Things You Should Know About A Change in Plans
By Mike Martin
1. The main character is Sgt. Winston Windflower
Windflower is a Cree from the fictional community of Pink Lake Alberta. People ask why did I make him Indigenous? I didn’t make him anything. That’s the way he came. Windflower came out of the fog one night in Grand Bank, Newfoundland and started talking to me. I just wrote down his story.
2. A Change in Plans is part of the Sgt. Windflower Mystery Series
A Change in Plans is the 17th book in the Sgt. Windflower Mystery series. It is a light mystery series set in Grand Bank, Newfoundland, on the easternmost tip of Canada.
3. A Change in Plans is set in Newfoundland, Canada
A Change in Plans is set in Grand Bank, Newfoundland, on the easternmost tip of Canada. It is small, fairly isolated with a history of rum running during prohibition and the love of smuggling runs deep. It is the perfect location for a series of mysterious crimes and adventures.
4. What’s A Change in Plans about?
RCMP officer Winston Windflower’s rare afternoon off gets interrupted when a hit and run turns into murder and he must pull together a team of Mounties from Newfoundland to resolve the crime. Following the money and fentanyl— and bodies—Windflower and his team join forces with police officers in southern Ontario to take down an international drug-smuggling ring.
Windflower must face personal doubts and fears when fellow Mountie Fil Romano is kidnapped. While the higher-ups at HQ make plans to give safe passage to the drug lords in return for Romano’s life, Windflower worries Romano will get caught in the crossfire. Windflower again looks to his friends and allies for help in the difficult hours and days ahead.
5. A Change in Plans is available from Amazon, all over the world.
