Liffey Rivers: Four Mini Mysteries

By Brenna Briggs

Book Overview

Four Mini Mysteries is the only collection of the Liffey Rivers Irish Dancer Mysteries in short story form. These Liffey Rivers short mysteries were originally published as serialized, monthly installments in Irish Dancing and Culture Magazine when it was published in England. In "The Mystery of the Missing Novice," Liffey discovers that there are two unrelated young dancers at an Irish dance competition (feis) who look like identical twins. When one of them goes missing, Liffey's intuition and attention to detail bring about the safe return of the missing novice. In "The Case of the Clumsy Clowns," Liffey suspects that a group of klutzy clowns performing at a local church, billing themselves as 'The Joyful Jesters, ' might be up to something more than entertaining their audience. "The Mystery of the Temporary Trophy," finds Liffey at a feis in New York with her flaky Aunt Jean who is suffering from Post Traumatic Bling Syndrome. Liffey observes that one of the perpetual trophies to be awarded at this feis looks suspiciously like the ancient Derrynaflan Chalice she has seen before in a Dublin museum. In "The Werewolves of Ossory," Liffey rescues a dancer from Ireland who has traveled alone to the Seattle Halloween Feis burdened with a centuries old family curse.
