Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Mercy and Lizzie McCarthy are settling in to the charming seaside village of Shamrock Cove on the west coast of Ireland. Lizzie throws herself into organizing a book festival and mystery writer Mercy even agrees to come out of her bookish hidey-hole to get involved. But then the event's star author is found dead. James Brandt was killed by a falling bookshelf in his own cottage... The local detective is not convinced by Mercy's suspicion of murder but when someone else turns up dead, the police cannot ignore it. There's just one problem: Mercy and Lizzie's beloved dog Mr. Poe sniffs out the second body in the storeroom of their own bookstore. And now all the gossips seem determined to pin the murder on Mercy! Convinced the police are focusing on a red herring in this real-life case, Mercy needs to act fast to clear her name. A meddling mayor, a cheerful chef and a bashful botanist make her suspect list, but it's not until Mercy discovers a tatty old photograph in the local library archive that she is onto the killer's trail. With the police keen to shut her out of the murder investigation, can Mercy play this case by the book, or will she be the next to fall off the shelf...?"--Provided by publisher.
