I Didn’t liked in My story:

A-The inability of the security to know the killer without the intervention of young Darby Shaw

B-The events of the story are all coherent and complex in the case of killing the two judges

c-Failure to tell the FBI to Darby Shaw that they were pursuing / complaining that Mattis was behind the crime because this information could have helped her to reach the killer quickly

The hero :

The hero of the story is considered a very smart hero as she was able to solve the mystery of the two judges while she was a university student in return for the state and the police She was not able to find out the killer and must be investigated without submitting an exam for her acceptance of this ordeal

The enemy:

The enemy of the story is: Terrorist Kamil and Victor Mattis because They are considered criminals because they killed the two judges because of their greed to dig to take oil, but it is not possible because this is the place for the threatened birds, which are the swans. They were not convinced of this reason, which led to the killing of the judges and hiding their file.

short dialogue between 2 character:

A-Darby shaw       B-Gray Grantham

A: Hello Grantham, we should meet in New York

B: Hi Darby Shaw, okay, I’ll be on time

A: I will reveal to you the details of the file that I have

B: The file assumes the assassinations were ordered by Victor Mattis, a rich oil businessman who wants to drill for oil in the Louisiana swamps.

A: Because it is an important home for an endangered species of pelicans

B: So Mattis wanted to tip the case in his favor by killing the two judges (because of their environmental support).

The character I choose is: Head of the FBI

If I him/her I would/would not: I would was going to tell my agents not to shoot Khimer when he was going to kill Darby Shaw and catch him alive so that they would know what caused the killing and find the cause quickly.

If I were the writer of the book I have changed in it:

A- If I were the writer, I would expand the story further

B- I hire Darby, the best investigator in America, for her age and intelligence

C- She met the change of the title of the story from the Swan case to the investigator Darby Shaw and her intelligence
