Book excerpt: In book #1 of the Liffey Rivers Irish Dancer Mystery series,13-year-old Liffey Rivers is power-walking around the hotel lobby at the Celtic Arch Feis in St. Louis when she sees a suspicious looking man with a beautiful porcelain Irish dancer doll peeking out of a plastic shopping bag. An over-sized sparkling diamond tiara is perched on top of the doll's curly brown wig--but the doll is wearing a traditional Irish dance school dress. Intuitively, Liffey realizes that whoever put the dress on the doll did NOT place the diamond crown on its head. When Liffey cannot resist investigating further, she finds herself not only trying to win a 1st place medal to qualify for her first Irish dance solo dress, but also dodging dangerous criminals when she takes decisive action to thwart their plans. After a series of suspenseful cat and mouse chases, Liffey Rivers unravels the mystery of the sparkling solo dress crown.

Book excerpt: In Book #7 of the Liffey Rivers Irish Dancer Mystery series, 14-year-old Irish dancer Liffey Rivers sets out during a freak November 1st blizzard in Mineral Point, Wisconsin, to help a friend decipher a mysterious puzzle that may lead to an undiscovered gold mine. When a blast of frigid wind deposits a huge pile of snow in her path, Liffey uses her Irish dancing training to launch herself over it and discovers that High Street has two sides: a Gray Dog Deli side and a Red Rooster Cafe side. Same direction. Very different paths. The Mystery of the Pointing Dog is Wisconsin historical fiction for tweens set in 1842. Featuring an Irish immigrant family which has settled in Southwestern Wisconsin, it is also Liffey Rivers' most challenging and dangerous mystery to date.

Book excerpt: When Charlie Brennan goes ice fishing on her town's frozen lake, she's hoping the fish she reels in will help pay for her dream: a fancy Irish dancing dress for her upcoming competition. But when Charlie's first catch of the day happens to be a talking fish offering her a wish in exchange for its freedom, her world quickly turns upside down, as her wishes go terribly and hilariously wrong. Just as Charlie is finally getting the hang of communicating with a magical wishing fish, a family crisis with her older sister brings reality into sharp focus. Charlie quickly learns that the real world doesn't always keep fairy-tale promises and life's toughest challenges can't be fixed by a simple wish . . . Acclaimed author Kate Messner expertly weaves fantasy into the ordinary, in an important story of self-reliance and hope that will open readers' eyes to the wonders and challenges of their world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four years ago, the author started out on a journey to learn Irish set dancing, at an age, he says “When most men and women are pulling the stool closer to the turf fire and dreaming of life when life was young.” The journey took him from Nova Scotia to Milwaukee, Killarney, Ballinasloe and many lesser-known places in between, including a “wacky little burg in the Catskills where Irish dreamers had painted green shamrocks on the pavement all up and down the principal street.” Along the way, Devlin says, he met the wildest assortment of Irish and Irish-American characters imaginable and chapter by chapter, Devlin brings these fascinating people and their sometimes amusing, but always endearing, ways, close to your chair and into your heart. “Like all of us who cling to our sense of an Irish heritage,” Devlin says, “Like a moth to a bright light, I am drawn to Irish ways.” As a reader, if you share this life view, you will love this book. ________________________________________________________________ “A hilarious account from deep inside the mind of a new set dancer progressing from his wife’s reluctant partner to a fully obsessed set dancer who meets a host of entertaining and endearing characters along the way.” Bill Lynch; Publisher, Set Dancing News. “Swaggering, comical, and shrewd, Devlin’s memoir is an insider’s entertaining tale of the oddities and magical allure of the Irish set dancing world..” Cynthia Neale; Author of the Irish Dresser and Norah.
