The Celtic Crow Murders by Patricia La Barbera is a fictional account of one woman’s harrowing journey to expose the truth surrounding her husband’s mysterious death.
After Larissa O’Connor’s husband dies under mysterious circumstances, she receives an intriguing letter signed “the Celtic Crow,” which beckons her to a picturesque village in Northern Ireland. In the town of Cushendall, the dark mansion Dalriada awaits with eerie secrets for her to uncover, as do a collection of colorful characters that will provide a pool of possible culprits for her to investigate. While searching for answers, she encounters the first glimmer of romantic attraction for a handsome, tousle-haired man, but even he is a suspect. Bewildered and uncertain, Larissa must endure a tormenting night at Dalriada before she can discover the truth and prove that courage, intelligence and persistence, coupled with love, can be a lethal combination against malice.
La Barbera feels that the darker elements of the storyline contrast strongly with the beauty of Ireland’s landscape. “I have ancestors from Cushendall, and when I visited the town, I was inspired by the beauty of the village and the surrounding area,” she says. “The ghost stories and Celtic ruins made it seem like the perfect setting for a murder mystery.”
