"Hart writes with a lovely eloquence about how character is shaped by the music,
the architecture and the history of this harsh and beautiful land..."
New York Times Book Review
A death from the past. A mystery for the present. A murder in the future.
WelcomeFáilte
to the bogs, the pubs, the music, the landscape, the archaeology, the poetry, the mystery that is Ireland...
...and to the official website of Erin Hart, author of the Nora Gavin/Cormac Maguire crime novels. Erin's debut novel, HAUNTED GROUND, was nominated for mystery's prestigious Anthony and Agatha awards, and won Romantic Times Best First Mystery, and the Friends of American Writers award. The second novel in the series, LAKE OF SORROWS, was shortlisted for a Minnesota Book Award. The third novel in the series, FALSE MERMAID, is now available in paperback.
Archaeology is an apt metaphor for how Erin unearths her novels working down through many layers, finding connections, bringing priceless artefacts and terrible secrets of the past to light. With that metaphor in mind, this site also has plenty of hidden layers to uncover. Have fun digging!
