Dashing Through the Snowbirds is the next merry installment of Donna Andrews's New York Times bestselling Meg Langslow mystery series.

Christmas in Caerphilly is wonderful! Unless you’re a Canadian whose inconsiderate boss is forcing you to spend the holiday there, far from family and friends, with only a slim chance of a white Christmas. Meg already has her hands full, trying to make the season festive for the dozen programmers who are staying with her and Michael while working on a rush project with her brother’s software company. At least it’s an interesting project, since the Canadian company is doing forensic genealogy and DNA analysis.

When the inconsiderate boss is found murdered, there are too many suspects. Even before their Christmas in exile, his own employees had plenty of motives, and the growing number of people suing the company for faulty DNA analysis and invasion of their genetic privacy include at least one notorious murderer. Can Meg crack the case in time to keep the Yuletide bright?

Andrews consistently entertains." —Publishers Weekly on The Twelve Jays of Christmas

"Andrews lays on the good cheer with a trowel." —Kirkus Reviews on The Gift of the Magpie

"Caerphilly, with its endearing residents, is the kind of place every cozy fan would like to escape to during stressful times. Andrews consistently entertains." —Publishers Weekly on The Gift of the Magpie

“Exceptional....[with] plenty of twists and turns en route to the satisfying ending. As always, spending time with Meg and her wonderful family is a delight. Andrews reinforces her place at the top of the cozy subgenre." —Publishers Weekly on Owl Be Home for Christmas

This episode- like all preceding ones, did not disappoint… it’s light-hearted fun, easy listening and the narrative grabs you enough to want to carry on! I have no idea how easy/ difficult it would be to read / listen as a stand-alone book… but the fact that so many listeners wait with bated breath for the next instalment days it all! Thank you also to the narrator who has created the characters so they become clear within context, she has developed them all to be easily recognisable, sometimes I can see the entire picture before my eyes!
Many thanks to both author and narrator for so many hours of enjoyment.

Pure escapism

Like so many other people, I always look forward to a new visit to Meg & Michael's home, and all of the wonderful people of Caerphilly.

This latest installment, was just as wonderful as I thought it would be.

Donna Andrews' writing and Bernadette Dunne's narration are always such a dream combination.

Long may this fabulous series continue! 😍
