Spectacles, Sangria, and Selkies (ebook) Skye O'Shea Paranormal Cozy Mystery #5 (pre-order)
She just wanted to enjoy her summer by the sea. The ocean had other plans.
With Ballybás’s annual Spring Fête on the horizon, Skye Brigid O’Shea hopes the carnival will bring crowds, and enough profit to keep her seaside pub afloat. Between baking scones, wrangling volunteers, and fending off her cat sídhe’s complaints about “tourists with no taste,” she’s determined to enjoy a rare stretch of normal life.
But when the carnival rolls into town wrapped in fog and mystery, the fun fades fast. A teenage boy is found dead under a cliff, a traveling photographer vanishes without a trace, and the Fun Fair workers seem a little too obsessed with the sea. Strange rhythms pulse beneath the sand and mysterious eyes gleam from the surf.
When friends and neighbors begin to disappear, Skye has to decide how far she’ll wade into the magic that’s already claimed too many lives. As a storm rises over the cliffs and the sea demands its due, Skye faces a final choice. Does she protect the people she loves, or honor the old laws of blood and brine?
Spectacles, Sangria, and Selkies is a hauntingly cozy paranormal mystery filled with Irish folklore and seaside secrets. If you like strong heroines and talking cats, you’ll love Rowan Dillon’s latest tale from Ballybás.
