Laced!
I really loved this mystery. Regan is a private investigator and Jack is the head of the major case squad in New York City. They're on their honeymoon in Ireland where suspected jewel thieves stole an ancient Celtic treasure. Then, they left Jack a note meant to taunt him. But, instead, Jack and Regan are determined to find their quarry. What does a ghost and seven paintings have to do with it? You're going to have to read this book to find out!
but discovered that Carol is right up there her Mother as a great writer in her own right
I bought this book for the reason that Carol was the daughter of Mary Higgins Clarke, the well known mystery writer, but discovered that Carol is right up there her Mother as a great writer in her own right! I thoroughly enjoyed this tale of intrigue set in Ireland with a honeymooning couple, complete with thieves, art collectors, a castle with a "ghost". With a multitude of suspects throughout the book, it kept my attention to the end. Also being of Scotch-Irish descent, I enjoyed the striking descriptions of my forebears country without the expense of going there! Will be ordering more of Carol's books.
light and fun mystery
As most of her books , this is a light, fun and an easy read. I always compare her books, as well as her mother's, (Mary Higgins Clark) to a Nancy Drew novel for grownups. Purchased it because I was heading for Ireland and thought it would be enjoyable to hear a mystery taking place in one of their many "haunted castles". If you're not familiar with her books and your looking for a dramatic or intense mystery, this is not for you.

Haven't read this one yet, but will do so shortly. Read all her other books about this main character. Love it. Loved the storyline, the characters and it is done in an easy, fast paced read. Good writing. Loved her other books.
A light rather fluffy book
I enjoyed this book, but to me it seemed like what some people call cozy mysteries. It was fun to read about the Irish people, but I couldn't take this book seriously.
