Danger comes to Cork in the seventh County Cork mystery from New York Times bestselling author Sheila Connolly, and itβs up to Maura Donovan to find a way to protect all sheβs worked for.
Pub owner Maura Donovan is settling into a charmed life in Irelandβuntil a mutilated body on her property ends her lucky streak.
Boston expat Maura Donovan came to Ireland to honor her grandmotherβs last wish, but she never expected to stay in provincial County Corkβmuch less to inherit a house and a pub, Sullivanβs, in the small village of Leap. After a year-long struggle to stay in the black, Sullivanβs is finally thriving, and Maura has even brought back traditional Irish music to the pub. With a crop of new friends and a budding relationship with handsome Mick Nolan, Mauraβs life seems rosier than everβbut even in Ireland, you canβt always trust your luck.
It begins with Mauraβs discovery of a body in the ravine behind the pub. And then, the Irish gardaΓ reveal that the victimβs face has been battered beyond recognition. Who is the faceless victim? Who wanted him dead? And why was his body dumped in the backyard of Sullivanβs Pub? Even after the dead man is finally given a name, nobody admits to knowing him. In the tight-knit world of Leap, no one is talkingβand now itβs up to Maura to uncover the dark secrets that lurk beneath the seemingly quiet town.
Laced with warm Irish charm, a delightful small-town setting, and a colorful cast of characters, New York Times bestselling author Sheila Connollyβs seventh County Cork mystery, THE LOST TRAVELLER, conspires to delight.
