About this listen

New Yorker Tara Meehan's first trip to Galway may be her last....

Tara never imagined her introduction to Ireland like this - carrying her mam's ashes to honor her final request: "Tell Johnny I'm sorry.... Take me home." She's never met her mam's estranged brother, Johnny Meehan, who owns an architectural salvage business in Galway. Although Tara is immediately charmed by the medieval city, the locals seem wary of strangers, and a gypsy warns her that death is all around.

When Tara arrives at her uncle's stone cottage, the prophesy seems true. A dead man lies sprawled over the threshold in a pool of blood. The victim turns out to be Johnny's wealthiest client, and her missing uncle is the Garda's number one suspect. In trying to find Johnny and solve the crime, Tara uncovers her mam and uncle's troubled past. But with a desperate killer about, she had better mind herself, or they'll be tossing her ashes in Galway Bay....

Another great book from this author. Different from her other series and probably not the best narrator but looking forward to the next one.

This was a pleasant story from this author. Storyline fine along with the characters. Narration is mainly fine, but the American accent is a little annoying. I did enjoy.

I Enjoyed the accents. The story was engaging and entertaining. Felt like I wanted it to last longer though.

Easy and engaging

I would have liked the timeline to be more realistic. Fall down a cliff, hospital back doing physical challenges all in the same day. People have memorials on the day they are murdered.
However characters were good and well developed. Will read the next book.

A bit implausible

I really enjoyed this book. It was interesting and kept me hooked the whole time. The story was exciting, and I never knew what would happen next. I kept trying to guess who the killer was, but I was wrong every time—the ending really surprised me! It was fun to read and full of suspense. If you like mystery books with twists, you should definitely read this one.
