Murder In An Irish Village (Irish Village Mystery, #1)

by Carlene O'Connor

In the small village of Kilbane, County Cork, Ireland, Naomi’s Bistro has always been a warm and welcoming spot to visit with neighbors and share a cup o’ tea. But murder has a way of killing business . . .  
 
Nowadays Siobhán O’Sullivan, along with her five siblings, runs the family bistro named for their mother. It’s been a rough year for the O’Sullivans, but it’s about to get rougher. One morning, as they’re opening the bistro, they discover a man seated at a table with a pair of hot pink barber scissors protruding from his chest. With the local garda suspecting the O’Sullivans, and their business in danger of being shunned, it’s up to feisty redheaded Siobhán to solve the crime and save her beloved brood.
 
“If Janet Evanovich and Maeve Binchy wrote a book together, Murder in an Irish Village would be the result. This one is delicious fun.”—Laurien Berenson, author of Live and Let Growl
 
“A smart whodunnit in an idyllic locale. I dare you not to be charmed by sleuth Siobhán and her siblings, the O’Sullivan Six.”—Barbara Ross, author of Fogged Inn

A super fun cozy with a perfect Irish setting. I have to admit, the tale was laced with plenty of suspects who could have equally been the killer. I didn’t figure it out until just before the reveal. Even better, the story had all the clues needed to figure it out. So often, that isn’t the case...but with this book, I can happily say it’s quite possible to solve the mystery with the information provided.

I had just a really great time reading this.
