Description: UNKINDNESS: the collective word for a group of ravens. UNKINDNESS: the collective word for a group of ravens. They are not particularly predatory birds. . . but neither are they soft and submissive. Detective Chief Inspector Wexford thought he was merely doing a neighbourly good deed when he agreed to talk to Joy Williams about her missing husband. And he certainly didn't expect to be investigating a most unusual homicide.
