A cozy Irish mystery where ancient magic meets modern murder.
American journalist Cassie Evans arrives in the Irish village of Kilshannon expecting rain, stone walls, and answers about the father she never knew. What she gets is a lightning strike at an ancient stone circle, a telepathic Irish wolfhound with a two-hundred-year-old curse, and a murder she never saw coming.
When Cassie’s great-aunt Moira, the one person in Ireland who welcomed her without question, becomes the prime suspect in the death of her beloved pastry chef, Cassie refuses to stand aside while a lazy detective builds the wrong case. Armed with a truth-sense she’s still learning to trust, a photographic memory she didn’t ask for, and a púca who desperately needs good deeds, she sets out to uncover what Siobhán Walsh was hiding, and why someone couldn’t let her tell it.
But Kilshannon’s secrets run deeper than one murder. Somewhere beneath the village’s charm lies a forty-year-old tragedy, a curse older than memory, and a father suspended between worlds — waiting for a daughter who didn’t know he existed until it was almost too late.
Murder at the Sea Glass Café is the first book in the Cassie & Skelly series. Where Irish folklore meets cozy mystery, and the truth always finds its way to the surface. Eventually.
