Catie Murphy: Death in Irish Accents

by

The fourth installment in A Dublin Driver Mystery series, Death in Irish Accents, has Megan Malone in the thick of a murder investigation over the course of the St. Patrick’s Day holiday. Despite driving for Leprechaun Limos, Megan definitely ends up navigating more murders than back roads, much to her girlfriend Jelena’s ever-increasing dismay. Her trend for catching murder mysteries continues yet again when another literally falls into her lap during her morning coffee. Megan just can’t help but feel the itch to find the truth, to know the whole story of what happened to the poor victim and why. Yet at the same time, she is desperate to do whatever it takes to keep her girlfriend happy. Jelena isn’t pleased that the woman she loves keeps putting herself into harm’s way, and wants nothing more than for her to stay OUT of things. Unfortunately, everything seems to conspire against this. While some of her involvement is caused by Megan’s insatiable curiosity, most is genuinely just bad luck and happenstance. Even when she tries to go out of her way to avoid anything to do with the case, it seems to seek her out and drag her back in. read more
