Synopsis[]

Nick disturbs an intruder in the Ashfordly Council offices, but the suspect escapes with some adoption files. Greengrass claims that falcons are killing his pigeons and a child is kidnapped in Whitby.

Full Summary[]

There has been a break-in at the county council office. At first it seems that nothing but petty cash was taken, but then it is discovered that an adoption file is missing. When the child of that file is abducted suspicion falls on its biological mother Sandie Eliot. Only the abducted child is not hers! Greengrass reports a murder. One of his homing pigeons has been killed by a peregrine falcon, and when the police will have nothing to do with it he and his fellow members of the local pigeon fanciers association decide to take matters in their own hands.
