Murder in Connemara

Home to Ireland Mysteries, Book 2

De: Carlene O'Connor

Narrado por: Heather O'Neill

In Galway County, a chance at redemption is denied by an unforgiving killer....

Former New Yorker and interior designer Tara Meehan is eagerly anticipating the grand opening of her architectural salvage shop Renewals in her newly adopted home of Galway. She's in the midst of preparations when heiress Veronica O'Farrell bursts in to announce she's ready for some renewal of her own. To celebrate one year of sobriety, she's invited seven people she wronged in her drinking days to historic Ballynahinch Castle Hotel in neighboring Connemara to make amends in style.

But perhaps one among them is not so eager to pardon her past misdeeds. Veronica is found lying in the ruins of manor house Clifden Castle with an antique Tara Brooch buried in her heart - the same brooch Tara Meehan admired in her shop the day before, posting a photo with the caption: #Killerbrooch. Now she's a prime suspect, along with Veronica's guests, all of whom had motives to stab the heiress. It's up to Tara to pin down the guilty party....

The story & scenery descriptions

Heather O’Neil is GREAT!! She brought this story to life. Now I must visit Ireland!

Well researched

Love the storyline and the characters. Leaves you wanting more about the relationships of the characters and I can’t wait for the next book

Quite a who-dun-it

I love the Irish accents, countryside and lifestyles presented. The characters are beginning to grow on me as they have with Carlene O’Connor’s other series. It is enjoyable to watch them grow.
There are lots of twists and turns. I like the inclusion of animals.
I look forward to the next books.

Kept in Suspense

The author has created likable and relatable characters and the narrator portrays them well. Suspicion is cast on all the players who reasonably could have committed the crime and I changed my mind several times including the final murderer, but I didn’t identify him until the last chapter.

Reader/narrator was good. I was engaged right away!

I love Carleens style. Her characters are very engaging. It is not a slow burn but gets right into things. I love learning about the Irish culture and countryside by her perspective. I love her characters.
