Publisher's summary

Rodeo Drive bridalwear designer Rayne McGrath expected her 30th birthday to start with a power lunch and end with champagne, lobster, and a diamond engagement ring from her fiancé. Instead, flat-broke and busted, she’s on a plane to Ireland, where she discovers that she’s inherited a run-down family castle.

Uncle Nevin’s will contains a few caveats—for example, if Rayne doesn’t turn McGrath Castle around within a year, the entire village will be financially destroyed. With the fate of the town in her hands and rumors that Rayne’s uncle’s death wasn’t actually an accident, she can’t possibly go back to her old life in L.A.

As the devastating truth about her uncle dawns on Rayne, it’s not just her reputation that’s on the line—it’s her life. Featuring a sharp and endearing protagonist, a colorful and quirky locale, and twists and turns befitting an old Irish village, the first in Ellie Brannigan’s mystery series transports listeners to a milieu as romantic as it is deadly.

like listening to a cackle of hens - for hours

I cant understand the 5-star reviews. To me it was THE worst drawn out story - full of filler, ad nauseum - , the worse narration (like fingernails on a chalk board for one of the primary characters) and just never got moving. By half of the book your could wrapped everything up in a paragraph.
Good Lord. My first and LAST book by Ellie Brannigan and this is book one. They must give out special sustainment awards for those brave enough to listen to book 2. TERRIBLE all the way around. Wish I could return.
