Summary

This December in Kilbane, if you’re planning to warm up with a cuppa tea at Naomi’s Bistro, you may have a bit of a wait - the entire O’Sullivan brood has gone off to West Cork to spend the holidays with brother James’s fiancée Elise’s family, including her grandfather, the famous orchestral conductor Enda Elliot. Siobhán is so happy for James and Elise, but she’s also quietly disappointed that she must put her own wedding to fellow garda Macdara Flannery on hold. Mac will have to join them later, so he can spend part of the holidays with his mam.

When the O’Sullivans learn everyone will choose a name from a hat to buy a music-related Christmas gift for someone else at the gathering, it seems like their greatest concern - until the cantankerous conductor is discovered crushed under a 90-pound harp in a local concert hall.

With the extended family - including Enda’s much-younger new wife Leah, a virtuoso violinist - suspected in his murder, it's up to Siobhán to ensure the guilty party faces the music. But as a snowstorm strands both families in a lavish farmhouse on a cliff, Siobhán had better pick up the tempo before the killer orchestrates another untimely demise...

I adore this book series!

Another fantastic story from Carlene O'Connor, she is my new favourite author. Caroline Lennon is amazing as the narrator she brings the characters to life and I can picture them in my head. I have binged these books. This one is wonderful I really like the story, I would of liked a bit more in the end, with the family, but that's just a small complaint. The family are so likable and fun I could listen to their banter for ages. The story was interesting and fun, I was wrong with who I thought the murderer was.

light with clever social details

I've been listening to many in this series and the characters populate my 'home from home'. I think many of our souls have been a tad ravaged by world events of recent years .The presiding , down to earth morality and the light banter in this Irish murder tale is a balm to the soul .
a talented and engaging narrator!
