"Clara Gamadge is a detective in the honorable tradition of Hercule Poirot....Boylan's writing is crisp and intelligent, her heroine endearing." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY When Clara Gamadge's friend Armand Evers predicts his own death, he's right on target. But Clara wonders if the body is Armand's or his evil look-alike cousin, Boyd. Disturbed and baffled, Clara becomes worried about Armand's sister Rachel, and goes to Dublin to warn her. Her dicey transatlantic adventure entangles her in further confusing identities, remembrances of things past, and a killer as stealthy as the Celtic twilight....

While vacationing with family Clara is surprised by a visit by Arman Evers, an old family friend. But he is not there for the sea air. He has a request for her to investigate. He is vague about it and seems to make light, but it is serious business. The question is if he is really Armand Evers or his look-alike cousin Boyd? The mystery to solve is whether his sister is really his biological sister.
Clara tries to ignore it, but when she calls Rachael to see if all is right a chill comes over her. It seems that Armand is visiting her at the moment. Rachael lives in Ireland and Clara is in the U.S. How could that be so?
What brings it to a head is when Arman/Boyd is found dead in a Manhattan hotel pool. Clara is there and so is someone who looks like Arman/Boyd. Who is who? And who is killing who? Clara must go to Ireland to find the truth behind the multiple mysteries.
Written in the style of Agatha Christie, it is a good read that moves along. Clara and her friend Sadd are not spring chickens but they do have sharp minds and are on the go to solve the murder and the mystery of Rachael's heritage. ( )
