By: Catie Murphy

Narrated by: Ruth Urquhart

Squiring a self-proclaimed heiress around Dublin has got limo driver Megan Malone's Irish up until she finds the woman dead....

American-born Cherise Williams believes herself to be heir to an old Irish earldom, and she's come to Dublin to claim her heritage. Under the circumstances, Megan's boss Olga at Leprechaun Limos has no qualms about overcharging the brash Texas transplant for their services. Megan chauffeurs Cherise to the ancient St. Michan's Church, where the woman intends to get a wee little DNA sample from the mummified earls - much to the horror of the priest.

But before she can desecrate the dead, Cherise Williams is murdered - just as her three daughters arrive to also claim their birthright. With rumors of famine-era treasure on the lands owned by the old Williams family and the promise of riches for the heirs, greed seems a likely motive. But when Olga surprisingly becomes the Garda's prime suspect, Megan attempts to steer the investigation away from her boss and solve the murder with the help of the dashing Detective Bourke. With a killer who's not wrapped too tight, she'll need to proceed with caution - or she could go from driving a limo to riding in a hearse....

Fun and Enjoyable

Death of an Irish Mummy is a well written story with engaging characters and an entertaining plot. I look forward to the next book .

Good mystery and Irish travelogue

This is my third book in this series and I am so hopeful there's another one coming soon!

One of the best yet!

Mysteries are great, but a mystery with a treasure hunt the best! I seen on this story was the puppies for this dog lover!

Humor along with the classic American heirs to a noble title storyline.

I rate this as the author’s best thus far. There is more humor sprinkled into the story which relieves the potential for it to become tedious. The conflict with the always angry antagonist character adds some spice to the tale. And who doesn’t like a story about Americans, possibly inheriting an English title? Add to that the potential for a treasure hunt and it’s a good combination.

Good basic story

The story itself was light, but interesting. The part I did not enjoy was the narrator who was sort of lackluster. Also the narrator’s American accents were not good. Since the main character was American a narrator with a good master of American accents would be appropriate. I suppose it was down to the author when the Americans used terms common to Ireland, but not used in the US.
