New year, new book of the month! We’re starting off 2020 with a little mystery. When DS Cormac Reilly’s girlfriend, Dr. Emma Sweeney, stumbles across the body of a hit and run victim in the parking lot after leaving her university lab late one night, he is the first on the scene. With the discovery that victim is Carline Darcy, granddaughter of Ireland’s most successful pharmaceutical billionaire, John Darcy, the investigation quickly becomes both high profile and high pressure.
All is not as it seems though, and Cormac’s investigation pulls him in multiple directions at once. The trouble is, having his girlfriend Emma as the one who discovered the body, and a key witness, Cormac soon finds himself compromised. With the evidence mounting that the death is linked to a Darcy laboratory – and to Emma – Cormac finds himself second guessing how well he really knows his girlfriend. After all, this isn’t the first time Emma’s been accused of murder.
We cannot wait to solve this mystery together and then chat about it all over a glass of wine at book club this month! Join us – but grab your ticket quickly: many of our book clubs sell out for January in the first days of ticket sales!
