An Irish Bookshop Murder by Lucy Connelly
I received an advance review copy for free thanks to Bookouture and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Blurb
After receiving unexpected inheritance from her grandfather, Mercy and her twin sister Lizzie are now the proud owners of a charming antique bookshop in the tiny Irish village of Shamrock Cove. But before they can take in the beautiful view of the sea, one of their neighbors drops dead!
Mercy finds the Judge, a well-respected man who lives next door, dying on his own doorstep. She rushes to help, but with his final words, he accuses Mercy of murder! Most of their new neighbors hear his words and, with suspicion pointing at Mercy, she decides to investigate the case to clear her name.
Searching amongst the Judge's old books, Mercy uncovers letters proving several of the townsfolk had reason to dislike the judge—but was it the local pub landlord, the kindly cook or neighborly knitter who killed him?
My Opinion
Mercy and her twin sister Lizzie have inherited a bookshop from a grandfather they have never met. Mercy is an author of mystery novels so when there are a few crimes in the area she feels able to investigate.
An Irish Bookshop Murder is the first book in a new series, and with some great characters it is definitely a series I will be reading. For me this was a nice, easy read that I was able to read over a day. If you are looking for a nice small town mystery then add this to your want to read list.
Rating 4/5
