I just submitted Top o' the Mornin' by Maddy Hunter. This is the second in her
very funny Passport to Peril mystery series. It's extremely funny. I've
pre-validated it so it should be easy. But one word of warning - it's jam
packed with dialect and slang. So be mindful of this when choosing a text
quality rating.
From the book jacket:
Emily Andrew is earning some much needed green by navigating the twisting roads
of Ireland with a group of seniors, including her beloved Nana. But once the
hearty troupe from Iowa lands on Irish sod, trouble starts brewing: there's a
death-defying incident with a horse-drawn carriage... and a gender-bending
encounter with Emily's ex-husband Jack, now known as Jackie. No wonder Emily
has come down with a smarting case of hives!
The plot thickens like Irish stew when the group settles into Ballybantry
Castle, where a ghost is said to wander the halls. But it's no blarney when a
very real corpse turns up in one of the guest rooms. While the murderous
malarkey has Emily step-dancing as fast as she can, one sure thing emerges from
the mists; not even St. Paddy himself could drive out the spiteful serpent that
slithers among them!
