The Gourmet Dinner Club travels to Ireland to enjoy Irish cuisine while staying at a medieval, ivy-covered castle. Jane Marsh hopes Dale Capricorn will ask her to marry him at this romantic dream destination. But her plans are put on hold when the elderly castle owner becomes violent, a club member restrains him, and he collapses and dies. The police believe the mysterious death is murder and begin to suspect one of the club’s members. Dale leaves for home on a business emergency, and as the lone single gal in the club full of couples, Jane is thrown into the company of Griffin O’Doherty, the handsome Irishman who stands to inherit the castle. Jane must prove her friend’s innocence by solving the crime. Which of the sweet-tempered Irish could be a callous killer?

Review: A STEWED OBSERVATION by Karen C. Whalen
(The Dinner Club Mysteries)

A vacation to Ireland ought to bring a plethora of pleasurable experiences: sightseeing, reunion with old friends, making new friends, exploring the culture. But the six Dinner Club friends find this trip surprisingly unpleasant when, first the owner of the Castle hotel where they're staying in Limerick unexpectedly dies after a strange episode, then one of their party, Bruce, a former police detective, comes under suspicion. Feckless protagonist Jane, twice-widowed under odd circumstances, and hoping for a proposal during this trip from long-term beau Dale, determines to uncover the truth, while simultaneously reeling emotionally and being apparently courted by a handsome, flirtatious, Irishman.
