Synopsis

A haunted Irish castle, international jewel thieves, and a hotel fire—New York Times bestselling author Carol Higgins Clark has sent Regan and Jack Reilly on a honeymoon like no other.

Private Investigator Regan Reilly and her new husband Jack, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, are off to Ireland. But their very first night at romantic Hennessy Castle is interrupted by a fire alarm that distracts hotel employees from the theft of a valuable antique lace tablecloth from the castle’s memorabilia room.

A taunting note is left by the culprits—a notorious pair of jewel thieves whom Jack has been pursuing for over a year. Disguised as an elderly couple, they had checked out in the midst of the mayhem. Regan’s cousin Gerard Reilly, a Galway resident, is eager to help with the hunt, but their search takes as many twists and turns as the winding country roads of the Emerald Isle.

With Carol Higgins Clark’s unique talent for creating quirky characters, this is a classic caper that will keep you laughing, turning pages, and maybe even believing in ghosts.

From AudioFile:

Private investigator Regan Reilly and her new husband, Jack, head of the Major Case Squad in New York City, travel to a romantic castle in western Ireland for a their honeymoon. There they see ghosts and become involved in a racketeering investigation. The author reads her own work and vocally shades quaint characters with a variety of Irish brogues. Higgins Clarks depiction of Margaret, a painter who uses the design of a local dead person in her paintings, is portrayed as fearful of a ghosts revenge. While Higgins Clark uses inflections and cadence relatively well to portray characters of both genders and varying ages, a more experienced narrator would improve the performance.
