This month we’re chatting about Mystery on Macaw Mountain by María José Fitzgerald ($17.99 Book club price: $16.19 Hardcover, 272 pp)
When eight endangered scarlet macaws vanish from a new bird sanctuary at the ancient Mayan ruins of Copán, cousins Nico, Celeste, Mateo, and Isa suddenly find themselves at the heart of a baffling crime.
The four don’t have much in common—except their excitement to witness the rare birds’ release and their determination to solve the case. With poachers, shady developers, and even Mama’s irritating novio on the suspect list, the cousins follow clues from lively downtown Copán to the misty heights of Macaw Mountain.
Each step uncovers new secrets—and reveals how much stronger they are when they work together. Fast-paced, atmospheric, and full of cultural richness, this engaging mystery invites readers to explore Honduras while cheering on four unlikely detectives in a high-stakes race to save the macaws.
