BELLA GARCIA: 2015

Murder in County Tyrone by Padraig O'Hannon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I don't often read murder mysteries. They simply don't catch my attention. However, Murder in County Tryone has far exceeded my expectaions. Padraig O'Hannon has woven a tale and created characters that simply lept off the pages of this book. Getting people to fall for a dashing and debonair man or a sexy woman pictured on the cover is easy. Padraig O'Hannon makes you fall for his characters on a deeper level. The storyline is also something on a different level. It is really like nothing I've read before. It isn't like the tear jerkers I generally prefer, so you won't need the required box of tissues; you will however need a seatbelt! The twists and turns will keep you guessing until the very end. Don't think you have it figured out, things aren't always what they appear.

Twenty-one-year-old Neka is a bit of an introvert, she also happens to be stunningly beautiful.

When she discovers her friend James is about to be dumped, she sees the perfect opportunity to escape from her quiet life. Can she summon the courage to leave it all behind?

James Copley comes from a ruthless family. It’s rubbed off. Years ago, he disengaged from his brother’s smear campaign, but now his father has offered him an ultimatum, “Get married or lose your seat at the table.” Plotting to stamp his design on the family business, he proposes to a woman, even though he doesn’t love her. But his carefully laid plans start to unravel when she leaves him on the day she’s due to meet his family. Could years of planning his comeback vanish with her departure?

A possible solution comes in an unexpected form: Neka. She’s not only a friend, but the daughter of his benefactor. And she’s right there, offering to support him. But will her support stretch to marriage? He attempts to win her over to his plan but collides with her powerful father who wants to leverage the situation for his own gain.

In their fight for survival and love, they are forced to face some uncomfortable truths.

Can they overcome thwarted dreams and missed chances to find true love, or does forcing destiny’s hand only lead to misery?
