Product Description:
Molly Murphy’s beau Captain Daniel Sullivan may be out of jail on bail, but he’s still a ways from clearing his name, and his foul mood has Molly in search of a little breathing room when providence steps in in the form of a proposition from New York City’s renowned theatrical impresario Tommy Burke.
America has been very good to Tommy, and now that he’s getting on in years, he’d like to pass some of that good fortune on to his family back in Ireland. That’s, of course, if Molly can find the long-lost baby sister his family left in the care of a parish priest when they fled the famine and avoid the warrant out for her arrest that forced Molly to flee herself. Tempted by the prospect of going home for the very first time in years and putting her fledging detective agency on firm financial ground, Molly throws caution to the wind and climbs aboard the White Start Liner Majestic with hopes of sneaking on and off the isle without raising a peep.
But even before Molly lands on the other side of the Atlantic, Broadway’s leading actress, Oona Sheehan, has gone missing from the ship, and her maid is found dead in her cabin. Full of rich historic detail and enchanting turn-of-the-century personalities, Molly’s return home, In Dublin’s Fair City, is the sixth thrilling installment in Rhys Bowen’s award-winning Molly Murphy series.

I like the Molly Murphy series, however, this latest book was confusing to me. I don't understand why the person revealed as Rose's murderer would have killed her even if it was a case of mistaken identity and the victim should have been Molly. Why would this person (I don't want to name names) have killed Molly when he was following her so she would lead him to Tommy Burke's sister. Doesn't make any sense and ruined the whole book for me. Also, I thought the book ended abruptly and would have liked to know what was going to happen to Malachy.

I am so glad I learned of the Molly Murphy series. I have enjoyed them all and this one did not disappoint. My ancestors came to this country from Ireland about the same time Mary did and I enjoy reading about what conditions were like for them through these books. But you don't have to be Irish to enjoy Mary's madcap adventures.
This one took her back to Ireland which was a nice change of pace. I look forward to reading the latest one now out.

"In Dublin's Fair City" is definitely my favorite Molly Murphy mystery. Molly returns to Ireland to work on a case, but she meets Irish revolutionaries while she is in Dublin. The latter half of this book is all about the Irish fight for home rule, which has long been a subject of interest for me. Rhys Bowen exposes the hardships that many Irish citizens faced while England was ruling them, as well as the many women who fought for their voice to be heard in a new republic. I was thrilled when James Joyce, W. B. Yeats, & Maud Gonne made appearances. Thank you Mrs. Bowen for writing a book about the Irish struggle for freedom.

Rhys Bowen never disappoints in this latest installment of the Molly Murphy series. As Molly returns to Ireland we find her in a fast paced adventure as she seeks to solve a case and help get her brother out of jail. This series is one of my favorites (along with Victoria Thompson). You will finish the book wishing that you knew these people.
