Declan's Cross (Sharpe & Donovan Book 3)

This is just as exciting as the first two books and I'm ready for the next one. Patience is a virtue and I must wait virtuously, I suppose. Carla Neggers is a favorite of my reading group. She always has a lot happening in her books - romance, drama, rescue and some fun. The characters in each series seem to show up in the following books and that makes it feel like you are one of the group. We really enjoy Carla Neggers' books and recommend them to one and all who enjoy a good mystery with characters who are brave and keep the adventure in solving the mystery, or mysteries, going. Great book from a great series!

Although I realize Declan Cross is a fictitious town, my homeland are is nearby...County Tipperary, and having had the good fortune of a visit to the area, I really enjoyed the descriptions. The story line was good...a lot of background information helped, as I followed our characters. Carla Neggers knows how to get my attention and keep my heart in rapid beating. You will enjoy this story...and learn a lot about native Irishmen.

In book three of the series we are getting a better look at the main characters and more back story about their relatives.We are left wondering just enough to keep us interested about these folks and not enought to overwhelm us. I plan to continue with the series to satisfy my curiosity and hope to see more of the grandfather in future stories. He is quite the mystery himself!

Love, love this series and this was another great book. Carla Neggers is a wonderful author and having been to these places in Ireland it made it more enjoyable.

Great fan of Carla Neggers. I've enjoyed all her books. I was eagerly awaitingthis book, but a little disappointed with so many characters and it tookforever to guess who the murderer would be. Glad they finally gotmarried.Hope she will have something new coming out.However, I love her books. APTreaccar

Have read all the Neggers books, but characters are becoming hard to separate. So many brothers, extra FBI people and now the art world thrown in. But, she hooks me right in and even if I have to stop and think why I remember other books and characters, still a fun read.

I like that the author takes you to a different country and at the same time adds mystery and romance in the mix

I haven't read a book by Ms. Neggers I haven't liked and this one is no exception. Love all things Irish and this book gives insight to so much of that is Irish--land, people, food and traditions. The story line flows well as you cross the Atlantic from Donovan to Donovan. Enjoyed the interplay between the characters and the way it leaves you knowin there is more to come out of the mystery.

Read this one before Rock Point. That's why it was familiar and I knew about Father Bracken . This was very good and I really enjoyed it

This is the third in the series and I like the way the story continues fairly seamlessly, though it could be read as stand alone I think. I look forward to the next instalment. The characters are believable.

I loved it. I can't wait for the next book!

as always with carla neggers you have to be patient. I haven't finished it yet so don't know if I will find out in this book who is the thief from 10 years ago - or are we going to have to wait until her next book. I suspect its going to be the nexzt - or even the one after that!
