See all formats and editions

Inside this gorgeous swan is an ugly duckling just waiting to get out.

Family. Can’t live with them, can’t let them be wrongly accused of murder. At least, that’s how it works for Ivy and the Galloway clan. Now her best friend, Jilly Blackwood, is in a similar bind.

Jilly hasn’t seen her grandmother since feathers flew in a family feud years ago. That suited Jilly just fine because her true family—the one she found in Clover Grove—is more than enough.

But when Gran calls from her retirement community asking for help, Jilly can’t say no. Someone has died under suspicious circumstances and neighbors are blaming either the vicious swan that just moved in ... or Jilly’s grandmother. Gran may be quirky, but Jilly knows she’s not capable of murder.

It’s time for Ivy, Keats and Percy to join Jilly on the road trip of a lifetime. Will the crime-solving team make it back to Runaway Farm alive?

Join hobby farmer Ivy Galloway and her brilliant sheepdog, Keats, as they wrangle rescue animals and ruthless killers in this lighthearted cozy mystery series for animal lovers. If you enjoy a little magic with your mysteries, Ellen Riggs is also the author of the Mystic Mutt Mystery series.

This was a terrific book. Ivy and
Jilly go to Jilly's grand retirement community to take on an angry swan! They think it will be a vacation but the first day they're there they find a murder victim. And an alligator chases them when they go to see the swan and they find another victim. It's plain this is no vacation. Can they figure out who the killer is? Will Keats get over his aversion to water? Not likely!! But Jilly gets ask a stunning question. What will her answer be? Don't miss this outstanding book. Highly recommended.

NOTE: this book is the one in which the mystic mutt mystery characters are introduced… it is set shortly before the mystic mutt prequel.

Jilly’s Gran has a problem with an aggressive swan, so Ivy, Keats, Jilly, and Percy head down to Florida to help.
Unfortunately, Jilly and her gran have some past issues cropping up, then there is the murder that takes place before Ivy and she an even get settled in!
Luckily Keats, the canine Sherlock is on the case…

Another enjoyable cosy in this series, and this one has some big events. Firstly, the crew take a vacation of sorts, and head off somewhere new. Then there are some relationship developments for Jilly, and the introduction of a new character and spin-off series.
It’s all good fun, (though definitely not clean; Ivy’s manure pile might be missing, but that doesn’t stop her from finding a mess!), and the characters are still delightfully quirky. This time I think Asher managed to steal the show, but the swan was a close second!
Recommended for cosy mystery and dog lovers.

I love Ivy and her crazy life.

She finds trouble wherever she goes, but you can count on the Runaway Farm Crew to sort it all out. Maybe the swan family will come up to visit some day. I’m starting to believe these tales are true; they are such fun to read. Who wouldn’t want these good folks as part of their extended family? Thanks to the author for writing books that you really look forward to reading.

always so enjoyable!

I have read all of books in this series and thoroughly enjoyed them! They are easy to read and allow me to escape into a world of fun, laughter, and suspense. Swan with the Wind gives information on Jilly's background and family and the challenges she has faced. Love trying to figure out "who done it" but there is usually a twist which makes it a challenge. Although this book was not in their normal setting, most of the usual characters were there in presence or by contact. Highly recommend this book.

Those gated retirement communities aren't all they're cracked up to be, especially if you're wanted by bad guys for what they think are your magic abilities. Jilly's gran is in this situation, and asks for help with what may be a murderous swan on the grounds. Ivy, Keats and Percy head south to help with the avian situation, while Jilly's there to maybe fix up her broken family. Add Swan Whisperer to Ivy's resume but no new residents for the farm, this time.

The trip was to support Holly grandmother. Who's following them? Murders are being blamed on a loose swan. But they do not have hands so could not strangle anyone. A mixture of characters and enough mystery to keep you guessing.

Not her best work Ivy and Jilly go to help Jilly’s grandmother who is living in a mysterious gated community. It is poorly explained and rather disjointed untold midway through the book There are murders a mysterious swan who is scaring the residents.There are a lot of seniors milling around.I finished it and enjoyed, but not as much as usually.
