Fiction. Mystery. HTML: In The Drowning Sea, Sarah Stewart Taylor returns to the critically acclaimed world of Maggie D'arcy with another atmospheric mystery so vivid listeners will smell the salt in the air and hear the wind on the cliffs. For the first time in her adult life, former Long Island homicide detective Maggie D'arcy is unemployed. No cases to focus on, no leads to investigate, just a whole summer on a remote West Cork peninsula with her teenage daughter Lilly and her boyfriend, Conor and his son. The plan is to prepare Lilly for a move to Ireland. But their calm vacation takes a dangerous turn when human remains wash up below the steep cliffs of Ross Head. When construction worker Lukas Adamik disappeared months ago, everyone assumed he had gone home to Poland. Now that his body has been found, the guards, including Maggie's friends Roly Byrne and Katya Grzeskiewicz, seem to think he threw himself from the cliffs. But as Maggie gets to know the residents of the nearby village and learns about the history of the peninsula and its abandoned Anglo Irish manor house, once home to a famous Irish painter who died under mysterious circumstances, she starts to think there's something else going on. Something deadly. And when Lilly starts dating one of the dead man's friends, Maggie grows worried about her daughter being so close to another investigation and about what the investigation will uncover. Old secrets, hidden relationships, crime, and village politics are woven throughout this small seaside community, and as the summer progresses, Maggie is pulled deeper into the web of lies, further from those she loves, and closer to the truth.

Goodreads Giveaway.
I really struggled with this book. I was initially excited to read it as I usually find this genre appealing. As I was reading it, I kept telling myself that it would pick up but it really didn't. I essentially forced myself to finish it. The characters seemed one-dimensional and the plot moved really slowly. Usually I don't mind a slower progression through a book, provided there is lots of description and less conversation between the characters. This was not that kind of book. I'm sure that this book will appeal to someone however - it is not badly written. (

The third book in the Maggie D'arcy series has Maggie moving to Ireland for a trial run living with Conor. Lilly is hesitant at first, as she feels her life has been uprooted, but when she meets a young man and begins singing with his band, she is more open. Maggie has an uneasy feeling about the Rosscliffe House, and the community is caught up in protesting the land development being proposed. When the body of a construction worker washes up, Maggie itches to be part of the investigation.
Conor and Maggie also discuss her plans and job prospects.
I wouldn't have solved this one on my own. (

Maggie D'Arcy has left New York after her last detective case made her fearful for her daughter's safety. She and her daughter Lilly are staying at least for the summer with Conor while Maggie decides if she wants to join the garda. A Polish immigrant's body turns up in the sea, and investigators believe there is a chance it could be connected to a drug situation a few years back. When Lilly is dating the younger brother of another Polish man connected with the building site where the deceased immigrant worked, she questions whether this is a good thing or not. Most of the locals seem to like the buy, but the connection causes her concern. Police never tell Maggie what's going on, but she investigates a little on the side. The case conclusion is suspenseful and satisfying. (

In The Drowning Sea, Sarah Stewart Taylor returns to the critically acclaimed world of Maggie D'arcy with another atmospheric mystery so vivid listeners will smell the salt in the air and hear the wind on the cliffs.
For the first time in her adult life, former Long Island homicide detective Maggie D'arcy is unemployed. No cases to focus on, no leads to investigate, just a whole summer on a remote West Cork peninsula with her teenage daughter Lilly and her boyfriend, Conor and his son. The plan is to prepare Lilly for a move to Ireland. But their calm vacation takes a dangerous turn when human remains wash up below the steep cliffs of Ross Head.
When construction worker Lukas Adamik disappeared months ago, everyone assumed he had gone home to Poland. Now that his body has been found, the guards, including Maggie's friends Roly Byrne and Katya Grzeskiewicz, seem to think he threw himself from the cliffs. But as Maggie gets to know the residents of the nearby village and learns about the history of the peninsula and its abandoned Anglo Irish manor house, once home to a famous Irish painter who died under mysterious circumstances, she starts to think there's something else going on. Something deadly. And when Lilly starts dating one of the dead man's friends, Maggie grows worried about her daughter being so close to another investigation and about what the investigation will uncover.
Old secrets, hidden relationships, crime, and village politics are woven throughout this small seaside community, and as the summer progresses, Maggie is pulled deeper into the web of lies, further from those she loves, and closer to the truth.
