Mystery Books

I've always like reading mysteries, so I thought I would try Irish mysteries. I found authors to read. Bartholomew Gill wrote the Peter McGarr mysteries. Unfortunately after he died in a fall, I find another writer. I did find some books by Jim Lusby, who wrote the Carl McCadden stories. These are hard to find in the US, however I was able to purchase some, and borrow some through interlibrary loan at my library. If you want the darker side of Galway, read the Jack Taylor books by Ken Bruen. There is also the Matt Minogue mysteries by John Brady. I am not sure if he has written anything new lately. Another I read recently is Andrew Nugent. Most of these are police procedurals. One book I read was Yeats is Dead, written by a variety of authors, but I really wouldn't recommend it. I'm sure there are others. I'll have to search the card catalog at my library to find more.
