Maggie Doyle has arrived on Whisper Island after leaving her husband and job in California.  While there she helps out at her aunt's Movie Theater Cafe. When a woman is found dead during a movie screening and her aunt is the prime suspect she sets out to solve the crime. I really enjoyed the island setting and the characters. The mystery was good with lots of suspects. I look for word to reading more in this series. Enjoy

Cosy mystery

This cosy mystery was a delight to read, from the characters to the story plot. And there wasn't a slow moment but everything was explained. I will be reading the next one as soon as my library gets their copy... For some things weren't answered completely.

This was a pretty enjoyable cozy mystery. There were some interesting characters. A few things were kind of silly but that’s how it goes with this genre.

A solid start to a cozy mystery series. I like the coastal Ireland setting.
