Set in County Cork, 'Murder In An Irish Bakery' is the ninth in this series, and a very welcome addition. Garda Siobhan O'Sullivan is asked to keep an eye on a reality baking show taking place in an old mill in town. Excitement amongst the villagers peaks when it is revealed a very famous celebrity baker will be taking part. But it's not all sweetness and light, when the competition show a ruthless determination to win. When one of them dies on day two, Siobhan and her husband, Garda Macdara Flannery, are called to investigate. Can they find out who is behind it all - and can they solve it before anyone else dies?
One thing is sure about this book - you'll get hungry reading it. I couldn't help but crave something sweet every time I picked it up. The bakery descriptions are yummy.
Carlene O'Connor has a wonderful light touch, bringing humour into all of her stories. She weaves a great mystery, making her readers really think. There's kindness too, and a family feel. I love that Siobhan's family are part of the story - and the many villagers and colleagues.
I was given this ARC for review.
