출판사 설명
Bestselling author Carlene O’Connor’s first novel in the acclaimed Irish Village Mystery series is now available in trade paperback! Siobhán 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 Siobhán 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 Siobhán to solve the crime and save her beloved brood.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Siobh n O'Sullivan, the feisty 22-year-old heroine of O'Connor's lively debut set in Kilbane, County Cork, Ireland, has been running the family bistro while taking care of her five siblings, who range in age from 10 to 24, since their parents died in a car crash. As the first anniversary of the fatal accident approaches, the family suffers another shock with the discovery of a dead man in their dining room, a pair of scissors jutting from his chest. James, the eldest brother, turns up later, battered and bloody, with no recollection of the previous night's events. When James becomes the prime suspect, Siobh n determines to clear his name, but she must stay one step ahead of a murderer who also calls Kilbane home. The cheeky and close-knit repartee among the O'Sullivans goes on too long at times, but their antics are sure to appeal to cozy fans, who will also appreciate the warmth and spirit of the people of Kilbane.

Fun book
A story that takes place in a town I visited made it extra special.
Very Entertaining
I thought this was a very entertaining book. The author kept me guessing who the killer was until the very end. All the different characters were fun to get to know.
