Murder in an Irish Bookshop

The cozy small-town atmosphere really brought the characters to life. I'm curious whether the author visited Ireland or imagined this idyllic setting.

The detailed interactions made the town feel real, but I wondered if the slower pace was deliberate to deepen character development.

It felt like the story was more than just a murder mystery — I loved the glimpse into the characters' lives. Was that balance something that evolved during writing?
