Klappentext

Lady Eleanor Swift is having a grand time cosying up with her husband in Dublin's traditional pubs, eating their fill of Irish stew and soaking up the craic... Until another body ruins all their plans! Lady Eleanor Swift is visiting Dublin with her husband Hugh Seldon and butler Clifford to meet Samuel O'Sullivan, a man who may be able to tell her more about the mysterious disappearance of her parents two decades ago. Deciding they should explore the city a little more, they jump at the chance to visit the world-renowned Finnegan's brewery. But their taste test of the famous black stout turns deadly when Eleanor spots a body in one of the barrels! The dead man is none other than the owner of the brewery, Fergal Finnegan himself. Sensing a scandal, the head of operations hires The Byron Detective Agency to investigate. It seems there was no pot of gold at the end of Fergal's rainbow. Did his debt-ridden younger brother kill him for his inheritance? Did the fact Finnegan wouldn't leave his wife make his mistress murderous? And was there more to fight about with rival brewer George Gaffney than just profits? When their chief suspect is found dead only days later and the top-secret formula for a new beer goes missing, the agency is almost thrown off the case. But Eleanor doesn't give up on justice. Will the luck of the Irish be on her side before the killer catches up with her? A totally unputdownable Irish cozy mystery, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, T.E. Kinsey and Carlene O'Connor!
