About this listen
A Romantic Mystery!
Amelia Moore, founder of the Moore Detective Agency, specializes in missing persons. Along with her partner, Rick Bonito, they are sometimes put in dangerous situations when solving a case. In this volume, they travel to exotic places such as Bali Island in Indonesia, Ireland, where she kisses the Blarney Stone, and Mexico, where she experiences what a rain forest is really like.

Rick and Amelia were great characters. Both are well written and well performed. I loved how Diane Lehman could so convincingly perform such a variety of characters from an elderly woman's voice to Rick's male voice and switching back to Amelia again.
I gave the story 4 stars instead of 5 because I thought they had quite an easy time with their actual detective work. William, the missing man, left a heap of breadcrumbs for the pair to follow which included a brochure circled with all the places he was going to visit in Bali and everything else they needed to know was detailed in a journal detailing why he had decided to disappear. Despite this I really enjoyed the suspense and mystery surrounding the people who were following and threatening Amelia.
The Shamrock CaseThere is much that I enjoyed about this simple, sweet, mystery romance. It is a quick and easy read. Amelia and Rick's quest to locate their client's grandparents was an interesting story and it had an unexpected twist at the end.
The story is set in Ireland and the author did a lovely job of writing about it. The characters have an almost childlike appreciation of all the sights, tastes and sounds they experience during their visit. You almost feel like you are on the tourist trail with them. Rick and Amelia make a cute pair and their romance blossoms a little bit more during their trip here. There are a few humorous scenes as Amelia keeps forgetting her raincoat and they have to brave the weather together. I felt like telling her to get a mini umbrella for her handbag!
Although the pair enjoyed the folk music in the pub they didn't get to experience true Irish traditional music and dance. After all Danny Boy is only a hundred years old. I think the couple would have had tremendous fun at a céilí dance.
There is less suspense in The Shamrock Case compared to their first adventure in The Bali Mystery but fans of the series should enjoy it no less.The mystery surrounding the couple who eloped to America just didn't ring true to something that would happen in modern Ireland but rather something that would happen in the nineteenth century. I know that the author was inspired by events that occurred in her own family in the 1800s.
I would have updated the story for it to better fit today's multicultural Ireland.
The Missing Heir
The romance is sweet and sedate. It is obvious that they have feelings for one another but it isn't really clear that they are a couple. I'd like to see them do little acts of kindness for each other or think about the other's welfare a little bit more to develop a more romantic feel to their relationship. The humour in 'The Missing Heir' is one of the things I loved most about this book. I loved the mystery surrounding the missing doctor in Mexico. The story behind why he was there was very interesting and I enjoyed the story of the orphanage. It reminded me of my friends who volunteer each summer for similar projects in South America and Africa.
I received a copy from the author and this is my voluntary and unbiased opinion.
A fun and entertaining series
