Hi all! Let's say I am back from a sabbatical...I hope.
Did you hear about the new drama series based on the Ana Pidgeon series by Nevada Barr?
Premise: "Anna Pigeon is a former city slicker who became a park ranger after a devastating loss changed the trajectory of her life forever. While Anna tries to outrun her demons, her focus turns to solving crimes that have taken place within national park grounds, no matter who or what gets in her way." (re: blurb about tv series)
This is a ten episode series to begin August 7, 2026 on USA network. The show's premiere episode adapts the very first book in the collection, Track of the Cat, published in 1993. [1, 2]
The cast of the USA Network crime drama series Anna Pigeon is led by Tracy Spiridakos as Anna Pigeon, alongside key cast members Ronnie Rowe Jr. and Paulina Alexis.
Book Series blurb: "National Park Ranger Anna Pigeon goes beyond the call of duty in this Agatha and Anthony Award-winning mystery series. She travels to National Parks around the country, solving mysteries in the wilderness and historic locales. Author Nevada Barr draws on her own experience as a former park ranger to craft these award-winning novels."
So glad to have this to look forward to in the hottest month of Texas Summer, with so many other mystery shows coming to an end for the season and not starting up until later or never to return. (Did I say Grantchester? You know I looked it up to see if there would be a spin off and they are talking about it. :)
There are 19 books in the series. I have read a couple of the later books and really liked them. This would be a good series for you if you are looking for a new series to start.
