My review:🌟🌟🌟🌟
Molly is hired by Tommy Burke, a big deal in the theatre scene. He wants her to find his long lost sister who was left in Ireland when the rest of the family fled the famine. With Daniel on suspension pending his trail, this is a difficult time for both of them.
On the trip back to Ireland, Molly gets hired by Oona Sheehan, a leading theatre actress, to pose as her on the ship. Needless to say, things aren’t as simple as they appear, and so Molly gets to Ireland with Oona vanished and her maid dead.
The trip on the ship is very different to Molly’s trip to America. I really enjoy the historical details in these books as I find they really help with the story.
The experience Molly had in the previous book of wanting to get rid of her pregnancy gave a real insight into the options had at the time. Her decision not to tell Daniel is explained and reinforced a couple of times in this book.
In Dublin’s Fair City was published on 6th March 2007, and is available from Amazon and Waterstones.
