Description
Maura’s been in Ireland less than a year and hasn't heard about the decades-old unsolved crime that took place nearby, let alone the infamous suspect, Diane Caldwell. But the locals have, and they're not happy to be trapped with her. Diane, meanwhile, seeks to set the record straight, asserting her innocence after all this time. And since no one is going anywhere in the storm, Maura encourages Diane to share her side of the story, which she’d never had a chance to do in court.
Over the next few hours, the informal court in Sullivan’s reviews the facts and theories about the case--and comes to some surprising conclusions. But is it enough to convince the police to take a new look at an old case? A clever spin on the classic locked room mystery, Cruel Winter, the fifth in New York Times bestselling author Sheila Connolly's series, will delight fans of the Emerald Isle.

Cruel Winter by Sheila Connolly is a captivating story that will leave the reader waiting for more.
A winter storm is bearing down on Sullivan's Pub and though her quaint little pub isn't booming with business, there are enough patrons to keep the fires going and the need for hot food a must.
They few regulars are willing to wait out the storm with Maura and Mick, but when a stranger wanders in, the talk shifts to an unsolved murder from years past.
Diane Caldwell was accused of killing her neighbor but the evidence was lacking and she was never arrested or convicted of the crime.
Diane is tired of the rumors and she confides to Maura that she wants to tell her side of the story, and before long, everyone is sharing theories.
Can it be that simple? Could a decades od crime be solved during a rare winter storm?
Take the plunge and read this riveting story and see for yourself how it ends.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I was transported to Sullivan's, sharing a pint and a cup of soup with the wonderful characters Ms. Connolly has created.
I voluntarily read an ARC of this book provided by the publisher and NetGalley.
