Murder Most Celtic: Tall Tales of Irish Mayhem

by Martin Harry Greenberg (Editor), Martin H. Greenberg

Overview

The Irish are deeply passionate about their kinsmen, their country, their culture, and their way of life, as this collection of mysteries so richly illustrates. Slow to anger and equally slow to forgive at times, the children of the Emerald Isle have had planty of experience on both sides of the law. The sixteen stories of Irish crime and mystery in this volume tell of good and bad men and women—heroes and villians both. All feature characters for whom being Irish is more than just a state of mind—it's a way of life.
