Bestselling author Carlene O'Connor's first novel in the acclaimed Irish Village Mystery series is now available in trade paperback! Siobh�n O'Sullivan lives in a quaint village on the Emerald Isle that's a pure drop of heaven, until murder changes everyone's luck for the worse. "Distinctive, captivating characters match a gripping plot full of surprises. O'Connor reinforces her place among the top rank of cozy writers." -Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW for Murder at an Irish Bakery In the small village of Kilbane, County Cork, Ireland, Naomi's Bistro has always been a warm and welcoming spot to visit with neighbors, enjoy some brown bread and tea, and get the local gossip. Nowadays twenty-two-year-old Siobh�n O'Sullivan runs the family bistro named for her mother, along with her five siblings, after the death of their parents in a car crash almost a year ago. It's been a rough year for the O'Sullivans, but it's about to get rougher. One morning, as they're opening the bistro, they discover a man seated at a table, dressed in a suit as if for his own funeral, a pair of hot pink barber scissors protruding from his chest. With the local garda suspecting the O'Sullivans, and their business in danger of being shunned-murder tends to spoil the appetite-it's up to feisty redheaded Siobh�n to solve the crime and save her beloved brood.

Murder in an Irish Village by Carlene O'Connor is set in Kilbane, County Cork, Ireland (and first book in a new series). Siobhan O'Sullivan (twenty-two) is part of the O'Sullivan six. Siobhan run her family restaurant called Naomi's Bistro and takes care of her younger siblings (the eldest is James, but he has a drinking problem). Niall Murphy has returned to town and is not receiving a warm welcome. Niall is the brother of Billy who killed the O'Sullivan's parents (auto accident). Niall claims to have proof of his brother's innocence. To get his brother a decent attorney, Niall needs money. One morning the O'Sullivan's wake up to find a dead man in their dining room (they live over Naomi's Bistro). James O'Sullivan is the number one suspect (he was drunk). It does not help his case that he got into an argument with Niall the previous evening. Siobhan sets out to prove her brother's innocence (and their restaurant). Will Siobhan be able to find the killer? Also, can she find out if Billy did or did not kill her parents?
Murder in an Irish Village is an interesting book, but it had too many Irish phrases and slang (which made it difficult to read). There is a dictionary at the beginning, but I do not wish to continually refer to a dictionary (disturbs the flow when reading and difficult when reading on an e-reader). I found that some information was repeated frequently throughout the book (the suspects and facts surrounding the murder). I did not understand why the writer felt the need to keep repeating the same information multiple times. Siobhan was not the most likeable character. She ran around alienating every friend the family had with her investigation (and wild accusations). I give Murder in an Irish Village 3.5 out of 5 stars.
I received a complimentary copy of Murder in an Irish Village from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
