“My career in the San Francisco PD ended the day I arrested my husband.”

Maggie Doyle gives her cheating ex and crumbling career in the San Francisco PD the proverbial middle finger, and moves to the Wild West…of Ireland.

Things are looking up—until the most hated woman on Whisper Island is poisoned at the café. With her aunt as the prime suspect, Maggie and her rock-hard muffins are hurled into the murder investigation.

With the help of her UFO-enthusiast friend, a nun, and a feral puppy, Maggie is determined to clear her aunt’s name. Can she catch the murderer before they strike again? Or will her terrible baking skills burn down the cafe first?

    An enjoyable romp into the heroine’s experience making friends and solving a mystery even tho she’s new to this Irish island community and its ways. Characters are well drawn, believable, and memorable. I still don’t know how Maggie got SO many people to tell her their secrets, but that was necessary for the plot! 🤪😄

    This was a good cozy mystery. I liked the main character Maggie. She was smart, loyal, and kind and has an interesting internal dialogue. At the novel's beginning, Maggie arrives at Whisper Island, Ireland to stay with her aunt. Maggie quit her job as a police officer after catching her husband cheating on her. After the divorce, Maggie decides to go to her aunt with whom she used to spend summers. Within days the murder of the town gossip soon puts Maggie's deductive skills to the test as she tries to clear her aunt's name. This was a better-than-average cozy. I liked all the side characters and thought the writing was well done. The mystery held my interest and I liked the hint of potential romance for the next book. I will most likely continue on in the series.

    A delightful mystery set in an island off the coast of Ireland. Irish themes abound and the writer uses many twists and turns to arrive at the final solution. Once the novel reaches a certain point, the drama is fast paced and fun. Gisela

    I’ve always enjoyed stories set in Ireland. The author has done a good job creating Whisper Island and its inhabitants. I look forward to the next story.

    Maggie, the heroine of this story, won’t mind her own business. That’s because as a former police officer in the USA, even though she has no jurisdiction in Ireland, she can’t let a murder go without getting justice for the victim, and clearing her aunt Noreen. A good read!
  • Saturated With Suspects

    What a delightful whodunnit with nearly every townsperson a reasonable murder suspect for good reason. A San Francisco ex-cop couldn’t help herself on an Irish island from sleuthing to solve a crime . Definitely hard to put down book!
