The Audacity of Goats
The Audacity of Goats | J. F. Riordan
3 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
All is not well north of the tension line. A series of unsettling nighttime incidents have left the islanders uncertain whether to be nervous or annoyed. Are they victims of an elaborate teenage prank, or is there a malevolent stranger lurking on the island? Meanwhile, out-of-state owners of a new goat farm seem to consider themselves the self-proclaimed leaders of the island; Pali, the ferry captain, is troubled by his own unique version of writer's block; and Ben, the captain's ten year-old son, appears to be hiding something. But it is only when the imperturbable Lars Olafsen announces his retirement, and Stella declares her candidacy for office, that the islanders realize trouble is brewing. Fiona must decide whether it is time to leave the island for good, or to make another reckless gamble. Book two in the award-winning North of the Tension Line series, The Audacity of Goats is the continuing tale of Fiona Campbell, and her reluctant adventures among the pleasures, mysteries, and exasperations of small town life

MinDea @QuietlyLaura they bring the goats in once a year to help clear up brush, blackberry bushes and other things! They move them from location to location for about a month in the summer here! Then they go back home! 6y
arubabookwoman I‘ve lived in Seattle 30+ years and I don‘t think I knew this (there‘s always the possibility I once knew and have now forgotten🤪). Would love to see them in real life—must go track down where they are now. 6y

Goat yoga, mindfulness in chaos. I got to pet this guy during shavasana.

JenReadsAlot Where are you?? 6y
peaKnit @JenReadsAlot at Silverwood Park in Edgerton, about 15 minutes for me. It‘s off 106. A farm at the edge of the park. It was hilarious, and a good practice with my best yoga teacher.👍🏻 6y
JenReadsAlot How fun! 6y

I stayed up TOO late finishing this book and don't regret it for a sec. JF RIordan knocked it out of the park! It was a great read with lovely character development and an intelligent and witty plot which builds on her first novel 'North of the Tension Line.' Highly recommend this novel.
