The Clew Bay Detectives by Pam Lecky

Hello my cozy friends, 

Today I am reviewing The Clew Bay Detectives by Pam Lecky.  What a great start to a new series, Pam Lecky is a new to me author but is definitely on my radar now.  I enjoyed this book and look forward to book 2.

Welcome to Westport, where the wild beauty of Ireland’s western coast hides deadly secrets…

Reeling from a devastating breakup, landscape gardener Ali Brennan escapes to the small coastal town of Westport, hoping its rugged shoreline and quiet rhythms will help her rebuild her life. But peace is short lived when wealthy landowner John Clifford-Murphy is found dead on a remote island in Clew Bay – alone, and inexplicably without his phone or vital medication.

The local Gardaí are quick to rule the death an accident. Ali isn’t so sure… especially when Clifford-Murphy’s widow begs her to look more closely. Joined by her enthusiastic college-dropout nephew, Gav, Ali begins to ask questions the tight-knit community would rather leave unanswered. And when her ex-boyfriend, Detective Aidan Cahill, turns up to inform her that her life is under threat, Ali is forced to confront the past she thought she’d left behind.

As secrets surface, the danger escalates. When Ali herself becomes a target – waking terrified and alone on the shores of nearby lake Doo Lough – it’s clear the investigation has drawn her into something far darker than she ever imagined. Can Ali uncover the truth before the killer strikes again?

Perfect for fans of Emylia Hall, LJ Ross and Carlene O’Connor.

I absolutely loved it, the setting, main characters Ali,  Gav and of course Pip the cat.  I knew from the first few pages that I would be engrossed in the story, I just couldn’t stop reading.  I am eager to read more .
The story is well done and the characters are really a fun bunch.

It was entertaining, full of twists and turns and I did guess whodunnit but that did not distract from the story.  I’m sure in the next book character development and plot will improve and I won’t be able to guess. 

I recommend this series to all my cozy loving friends and I can’t wait for book 2 to come out!

I requested and received an advanced readers copy from Storm Publishing and NetGalley.  All thoughts and opinions are my OWN.
