Aifric Ryan is a newly qualified Barrister who has been given a murder case. Robert Collins has been charged with the murder of his girlfriend. Witnesses saw them arguing on a night out at a local bar. Robert says he left the bar and went home; but his roommate never saw him come home. When Aifric leaves the murder file on the kitchen table, her sister Carrie decides to have a look. Carrie is part of the Dublin Police Force who is looking for a promotion to Detective. She quickly starts questioning some of the facts in the file.

This novella takes place approximately ten years before the first book in the Cormac Reilly series. (Carrie is a detective who works with Cormac in Galway.) In this story, both Aifric and Carrie are working in male dominated jobs and have to prove themselves to the men. The "Good 'Ole Boys Club" is evident in both their professions.

The mystery kept my attention. It was only three hours and moved fast. The narration by Aoife McMahon was very good. My rating: 4 Stars.
