1 post | 1 read
June, 1510: the Burren, west coast of Ireland - Upon going unexpectedly into an early labour, Mara is alerted to the disappearance of Malachy, the local physician. Mystery follows birth, as shortly after the entrance of her son into the world the body of Malachy is discovered. But who stands to profit from this death and who therefore are Mara's lead suspects? For starters there is Malachy's new wife and her two sons, not to mention the very daughter who helped to deliver Mara's child. But soon we discover that the list of people bearing Malachy a grudge is even longer that Mara could have anticipated.

Mehso-so

Mara, the Brehon (mediator/judge) of Gaelic Burren, has just given birth when the corpse of the local physician is found. It is Mara‘s duty to investigate the death, interrogate the suspects, bring the murderer to justice, while balancing a new child.

This is 6th in a series that I haven‘t read, so take my meh-ness with a grain of salt. The world building was lush and evocative. I just did not care about any of these characters. 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y
MargaretPinardAuthor Sounds like an interesting series, and if the world building is so good, I may try the first one 🧐 4y
BookmarkTavern @MargaretPinardAuthor I probably will too at some point. I just wasn‘t really in the mood for a slow burn mystery. I hope you enjoy it! 4y
