A Pint of Murder

The unexpected new owner of an Irish pub is in for a big surprise when she discovers a body before the ink can even dry on the deed.

A new cozy mystery series, perfect for fans of Carlene O’Connor and Ellie Brannigan.

Alanna Dolan spent her childhood summers in Ireland, visiting her grandparents—and she’d hoped to return to the small coastal town of Ballyojeez for a more joyous occasion than the reading of her grandfather’s will. As the American cousin, the last thing Alanna expects is to inherit the family pub…until she receives a letter from her grandfather expressing his wish for her to take it over—and adopt his Irish wolfhound puppy while she’s at it. Already reeling over the thought of so much change, Alanna’s week gets infinitely worse when she stumbles upon her cousin Deirdre’s body at a local bed-and-breakfast. So much for the luck of the Irish!

When what seems to be a terrible accident starts to look more like foul play, Alanna begins to sense that she might have been the intended victim. Not only was she the one who was supposed to stay at the B&B that night, but it becomes increasingly clear that her recent inheritance has made her a target for indignant family members—and maybe even local townsfolk who feel the pub should remain in Irish hands.

Determined to save herself and find Deirdre’s killer, Alanna throws herself into an investigation—and uncovers far more suspects who had the motive to kill her cousin than she ever imagined.

As the killer closes in, Alanna races to unravel the mystery…and realizes she’s falling for a life filled with shaggy puppies, dozens of nosy family members, and an Irish pub.
