"Buried In A Bog"


"Buried In A Bog"
by
Sheila Connolly

I loved it!  And it's the first in a new series, called "A County Cork Mystery Series."  Hooray!  More to look forward to.

Obviously set in Ireland, in a tiny little village, from whence came our heroine's Gran.  Who made her promise to visit there, after Gran's death.

Twists and turns...  Keep the reader interested...  Lots of background info, on Ireland and the Irish, given...

To read more reviews of this book, please click here...  And go to "Good Reads."

And many thanks to the Dear Reader, whom I don't remember...  But who mentioned reading this book, and thus, led me to it.  :-)

"Haunted Ground"

"Haunted Ground"
by
Erin Hart

From review on 'Good Reads'...
"A dazzling debut -- already an international publishing sensation -- combining forensics, history, archaeology, and suspense.
Introducing Erin Hart, who brings the beauty, poignancy, mystery, and romance of the Irish countryside to her richly nuanced first novel."

The beginning was slower going, even though I'm very interested, in the topic of body preservation, in peat bogs.  But the story progressed, I was hooked.  (There are actually 3 mysteries, contained in this book!)  I read the whole book, in 2 days.  Just *had* to keep reading!!! 

In "Good Reads Reviews", I found this bit, which I pass on to you....  How to pronounce a name used, in the book.  "how to pronounce Aiofe - that would be "EE-fah..."  I wish I had that info, before reading.  Because a character name like 'Aiofe' had me stumbling over it...  -sigh-  I agree with the reviewer...  Authors should give the pronunciation, of unique names.

There are 2 more books in this series, and my library system has both!  :-)
