Book Review: Galway Girl by Ken Bruen

By Terrie Farley Moran

November 5, 2019

Galway Girl by Ken Bruen is the 14th book in the Jack Taylor series—as sharp and sardonic as it is starkly bleak and violent, it shows the master raconteur at his best: lyrical, brutal, and ceaselessly suspenseful. I have long been a fan of Ken Bruen’s writing, particularly his Jack Taylor novels. I will confess…

Book Review: The Bodies in the Library by Marty Wingate

By Terrie Farley Moran

October 7, 2019

Earlier this year at the always exciting mystery conference, Malice Domestic, I was fortunate enough to meet author Marty Wingate. Although our conversation was brief, I found her quite engaging. And since Marty writes cozies, which are my all-time favorite reads, I could not understand why it is that I have never read any of her…

September 30, 2019

I have been lucky enough to co-write the four most recent books in the New Orleans Scrapbooking series by Laura Childs.

Scot & Soda by Catriona McPherson is the second book in the Last Ditch Mystery series featuring Lexy Campbell, where the Scottish-born California transplant sails into trouble when her houseboat party ends on a deadly note.

Fractured Truth by Susan Furlong

Book Review: Fractured Truth by Susan Furlong

By Terrie Farley Moran

December 20, 2018

Fractured Truth is the second book in the Bone Gap Travellers Mystery series written by Susan Furlong. “Travellers?” you ask. “Travellers,” I reply. As an Irish-American, I have always been fascinated by Irish Travellers, people who have lived in Ireland for centuries and stay by themselves away from all others. They follow their own sets…

Secrets, Lies, & Crawfish Pies by Abby L. Vandiver is the first book in the Romaine Wilder Mystery series. When I was a teenager, there was a radio DJ named Bruce Morrow who called himself “Cousin Brucie” because, as he explained, “You can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your relatives.” But if I could…
