Book Review: Death of an Irish Druid by Catie Murphy 📚
Rating: 4 stars
I recently finished Death of an Irish Druid by Catie Murphy, and it’s a solid addition to this charming cozy mystery series. The story follows Megan Malone, a Dublin limo driver who’s looking forward to some well-deserved time off. She’s excited to show her American friends the beauty of Ireland, but her plans quickly take a dark turn when they stumble upon a dead body in a holy well. 🍀🚗💀
The victim, Seamus Nolan—dubbed “the Irish Druid” for his somewhat controversial efforts to rewild his estate—is found under suspicious circumstances. While the local police are quick to label it an accident, Megan’s gut tells her otherwise. She’s no stranger to the complications of amateur sleuthing; it’s cost her personally before, but this time, with Nolan’s estate possibly slipping away to his opportunistic uncle due to some outdated laws, Megan feels more compelled than ever to uncover the truth. 🕵️♀️🌲⚖️
What I really enjoyed about this book is how this author weaves together a mystery that’s not only about solving a murder but also involves family drama, environmental stakes, and unexpected twists like a rival conservationist’s sudden advantage and a surprising toxic element on the estate. It keeps you guessing and adds depth beyond the usual whodunit. 🔍🌿💥
Also, I have to mention the book’s cover—it’s absolutely gorgeous and perfectly captures the mood of the story. The setting throughout the novel really shines; I felt immersed in the Irish landscape and culture, which added so much to the reading experience. The characters are well-developed and relatable, and the plot is tight and engaging without feeling rushed. 🎨📚🇮🇪
All in all, Death of an Irish Druid is a great read that I’d definitely recommend to fans of cozy mysteries or anyone looking for a fun, atmospheric story with a clever mystery at its core. I’m looking forward to more adventures with Megan Malone! 🔖✨
