Liked the plot, didn't like the editing. This is one of those books where it appeared the author was trying to meet a publisher's word count or page count requirement. There was so much reiteration in this book - how many times can Maura mention that her Grannny was from this area of Ireland? I noticed the same phrases repeated within a few chapters, and in one case a whole paragraph was repeated a few pages later, to the detriment of the story's flow.
IMHO, there could have been more resolution in the post-climax. Did Maura ever get a new coat and boots? Did her guests arrive home safely? How will her finances recover? And what about her cat?
That said, I've liked this series until now, and will likely give it one more chance by reading the next book in line.
