Murky Murders
A WEB OF deceit, family secrets, and vengeance …
In this darkly humorous, ‘Irish noir,’ the brutal murder of a mysterious recluse shocks the tranquil town of Cashelkillvar.
Who was the recluse?
Who hated him enough to kill him?
And what was his connection to one of the most prominent members of the sleepy community?
Burdened with the most incompetent police detachment in Ireland, and a name he’d rather not have, Inspector Sherlock O’Sullivan is on his own.
“Original, funny, very well written. Nothing like it out there. Would make an amazing TV series.” Sheila, W. Yorks.
“Beautifully murky, full of vengeful twists, deceit and secrets.’
