Turn-of-the-century New York murder mystery with a stubborn woman detective. Very good. Has that "homey" quality I like.

Molly travels to Ireland. Good that she got away from Daniel for a while.
Not everyone makes it out alive. The end seemed completely forced.

This one wasn't nearly as light-hearted as the ones before it. Molly is sent on a seemingly innocent assignment to Ireland but finds herself mixed up in the beginnings of civil war. There was a lot of great historical details in this story---much of which was new to me. Molly was able to wrap up some loose ends at home and gained a new appreciation for Daniel. All in all, a pretty good story.

Another fun Molly Murphy adventure, although I think the ending was a little forced. By all rights, Molly should have been extradited from America for her role in the bombing at a prison in Dublin. The author doesn't discuss that bit of possible trouble at the end of the book, nor is it mentioned in the next book in the series - at least not in the first couple of chapters...
