Honoring the wish of her late grandmother, Maura Donovan visits the small Irish village where her Gran was born - though she never expected to get bogged down in a murder mystery. Nor had she planned to take a job in one of the local pubs, but she finds herself excited to get to know the people who knew her Gran. In the pub, she's swamped with drink orders as everyone in town gathers to talk about the recent discovery of a nearly 100-year-old body in a nearby bog. When Maura realizes she may know something about the dead man - and that the body's connected to another, more recent, death - she fears she's about to become mired in a homicide investigation. After she discovers the death is connected to another from almost a century earlier, Maura has a sinking feeling she may really be getting in over her head...

Bought this book and narration hoping to learn something of current Irish life. It did not disappoint. Assuming the author is knowledgeable, I found an enjoyable walk through “everyday Irish” attitudes and concerns and phrasings and terms and .... The characters “brogues’” in the narration seemed authentic, and the “plot” was well constructed to fit the “real people, realistic life” approach. Very enjoyable!

I really loved this book set in Ireland! It's nice to feel like you step into another country while enjoying a great audible book!

Great Story!

I purchase this book when Audible had it’s first in a series sale. Initially it was slow, and I almost decided not to finish it. The narrator took a bit getting used to because I found her Boston accent a little harsh. It would have been foolish to return it because I hadn’t payed much for it in the first place, so I decided to soldered on. I’m glad I did. I enjoyed getting to know these people in Country Cork and the ending was better than expected. I have since put the second book in the series in my wish list.

Slow but Interesting first book in a series

This story reveals a family in a distant world to a young woman who had no hope in her life. The new family brought her what all families bring, stories of good and bad. Secrets revealed and wounds that only time could heal. Lovely read and so different from the others I’ve read recently by Sheila Connolly.

I bought this title because I really like Amy Rubinate. She’s pretty good in this one but I had to get used to her Boston accent.
The story was a little slow at first, but really picked up by the end. I knew pretty quickly who the protagonists were, but there was an additional twist at the end.
I’m going to try the next book in the series and see how the story and characters develop.
Overall, after things started picking up, it was a nice cozy....

Worth hanging in for

When Maura Donovan lands in County Cork, the home of her Gran, in a tiny village in Ireland, she is leary of almost everything and everyone she meets. But determined to follow her Gran's last wishes, to go to Ireland, Maura visits the friends who knew her Gran and begins to learn about the simple ways of the Irish. Surprised that everyone knew not only her Gran, but knew about her, Maura is humbled at how different life in a small country village in Ireland is than in the U.S. One thing is the same though, working in a pub . . . and Maura is quickly pushed into service when the locals all show up out of curiosity to gossip about a 100-year old corpse found in the bog nearby. And stranger and stranger they get, as Maura begins to be stalked and threatened by an unknown assailant. Maura realizes the body in the bog and another recent death are somehow related, and after finding a letter in the pub, goes to the local police. Its very interesting to listen as things unfold, in an oh-such-a polite manner . . . an Irish thing . . . none of the slap-the-cuffs on stuff, like we do here in America . . . I think I'm gonna like this series . . . great resolution and unexpected twists and turns make this one I won't forget soon!

The tale being set in the Southern of Ireland and the interesting web of local characters and customs make me know I will be back for more. Maura Donovan mysteries have to hooked!

Excellent

I thoroughly enjoyed this story introducing readers to Maura Donovan and her discovery of her Irish heritage. Having spent my 25th anniversary in Ireland and visiting it twice a year since, my husband and I bought an Irish home 4 years ago, and stories along these lines will always find a place in my heart. As I am also from New England, a heroine like Maura especially pleased me. I think anyone would enjoy the mind of this brave, fresh-thinking young lady and enjoy her adventures! As for your narrator, what a great job she did presenting all of Sheila's colorful characters. Can't wait to listen to the following books in this promising series!

GREAT BEGINNING TO A SERIES!

I particularly choose to listen to books when there are accents involved as is the case with this Irish sort of cozy mystery. The narrator did a fine job with the various characters' Irish voices. However, I struggled a bit with the south Boston accent (either she had the accent or she didn't - it was uneven - and the overall personality of the heroine. The mystery itself kept me entertained.

Overall, okay

After many years of schooling, degrees earned and students taught, when I read or listen to stories I want to be entertained. I enjoy mysteries. Some make you really search for the solution. There was a mystery here to be solved but the narrator's voice lulled me into the peaceful, slower pace of the Irish country side. Very enjoyable to escape the hurry hurry of my life style.

Enjoyable, Relaxing Entertainment.
