Customer Reviews

The Irish Village Murder

This is one of three books in the Torrey Tunet mystery series and I've also read The Irish Cottage Murder. Torrey is a young American woman who travels all over the world working as a translator. She lives part-time in an old cottage in the village of Ballynagh in Ireland where she has a penchant for solving murders. These books are light, enjoyable reading and are recommended to anyone who like British cozies.

Charming Cozy

The Torrey Tunet Mysteries are among my favorite series. When I finish one, I'm looking for the next one to become available. And with The Irish Village Murder, Ms. Deere does not disappoint. It is a charming cozy with lots of twists and turns that keep the story moving along. These entertaining mysteries are a great "anytime" read.
