A haunted Irish castle, international jewel thieves,
and a hotel fire -- New York Times bestselling author
Carol Higgins Clark has sent Regan and Jack Reilly
on a honeymoon like no other!

Private Investigator Regan Reilly and her new husband, Jack, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad, are off to Ireland. But their very first night at romantic Hennessy Castle is interrupted by a fire alarm that distracts hotel employees from the theft of a valuable antique lace tablecloth out of the castle's memorabilia room. A taunting note is left for Jack by the culprits -- a notorious pair of jewel thieves whom he has been pursuing for over a year. Disguised as an elderly couple, they had checked out in the midst of the mayhem. Regan's cousin Gerard Reilly, a Galway resident, is eager to help with the hunt, but their search takes as many twists and turns as the winding country roads of the Emerald Isle.

With Carol Higgins Clark's unique talent for creating quirky characters, this is a classic caper that will keep you laughing, turning pages, and maybe even believing in ghosts.

Review Summary: Satisfactory mystery adventure...
Review: This is the first book of the Regan Reilly series that I have read, and I will probably be enjoying more of these stories in the future. I was looking for something light and humorous with a bit of danger and mystery, and this book was it. The mystery wasn't so much a mystery as it was a chase really, but it was still a good story. I really like Jack and Regan's relationship; they solve crimes together and still manage to have a good time as well. I might start back at the beginning of this series when they were just dating to see how their relationship progressed over the years.

The story was good, like I said, but I would have enjoyed maybe a murder or two instead of just a few things being stolen...the ghost kind of made up for that part in a way, but there's nothing like a good old-fashioned murder mystery. Anyway, pick this up if you are looking for the same easy reading you get from Carol's mother, but expect a little more humor and adventure.

Review Summary: Irish humour
Review: Husband and wife team of investigators, Regan and Jack Reilly are newly weds, spending their honeymoon at an historic hotel in Ireland when some characters from their past seem determined to make a shambles of their holiday by carrying out another robbery right under their noses. It's a pleasant tale with engaging characters which I would recommend as a one day read in between heavier works.

Review Summary: Story just seemed to bomb
Review: I bought this as an audio book which came on four CD's. The story started out great but by the end of the first CD it seemed to just bomb. Maybe boring is more correct. My wife and I both agreed that we simply could not go on to the remaining CD's and terminated our listening after only 1/4 of the story was complete. Maybe the story picked back up on the remaining CD's but I guess I will never know.

Review Summary: Great Book!
Review: This was the first book by the author Carol Higgins Clark that I read. I was curious because it was about Ireland and would have loved to learn more about that country. The book was great; very interesting. I especially loved the two main characters. I have also read Hitched and have received all her other books in this series. I highly recommend any of her books. I think she really writes in such an interesting way that you do not get bored at all.
