  • Booklist Reviews : Booklist Reviews 2017 December #2
    The twelfth novel in Taylor's popular Irish Country series arrives much like its doctors, with quiet good cheer and humor. It's the mid-1960s, and the Irish country doctors and their patients love the National Health Service. New partners are making the workload easier, and tension comes in the form of broken hearts and a new puppy. Not everything is the "craic," as the Irish might say—that is, delectable gossip. Cancer, addiction, poverty, and abuse all get a historically accurate treatment. A little too much expository writing about medical treatments and practices of the time, as well as a heavy hand with the Irish colloquialisms, can make the novel drag in places. But, overall, you'll want to grab a comfy spot, pour yourself a cup of tea, and spend more time with the friendly citizens of Ballybucklebo, Ireland. Copyright 2017 Booklist Reviews.
