A Revengeful Regatta
(2025)(The third book in the Quay Road Mystery series)
A novel by Siobhan Purcell
Some competitions are worth killing for.
The annual Regatta Festival should have been the perfect celebration for Cloncastle. Sinead Long has thrown herself into organising the event, complete with a celebrity chef judging the village baking competition and celebrity chef Devin McShire returning to his roots. But when Devin collapses after sampling the competition entries, poisoned treats are just the beginning of the village's troubles.
As accusations fly between rival bakers and old grudges bubble to the surface, Sinead discovers that someone has been planning revenge for years. With a television crew capturing every dramatic moment, a mysterious assistant who vanishes without explanation, and bitter rivalries that run deeper than anyone imagined, the regatta becomes a backdrop for deadly secrets.
Now Sinead must navigate treacherous waters of culinary competition, professional betrayal, and long-buried resentments before the killer decides she's stirred up too much trouble. With the regatta committee in chaos and every baker looking like a suspect, she finds herself caught in a web of lies that threatens to destroy the village's reputation and her own safety.
In Cloncastle, everyone has something to hide, but some secrets are deadly enough to kill for.
The thrilling third adventure in the Quay Road Mysteries, where Irish village charm meets murderous competition. Perfect for readers who love their mysteries served with scandal and Celtic intrigue.
