Liffey Rivers and the Mystery of the Winking Judge by Brenna Briggs

Liffey Rivers and the Mystery of the Winking Judge by Brenna Briggs

In Book #2 of the Liffey Rivers Irish Dancer Mysteries, there is more intrigue at the National Portrait Gallery in London than 13-year-old Irish dancer Liffey Rivers could have ever imagined How will she tell the smug-looking security guard in the museum that she has discovered there is something very WRONG with the Coronation Portrait of Queen Elizabeth I hanging in the Tudor Gallery? And how can she even pretend she is ready to dance next week at an Irish dance competition (feis) in County Sligo, Ireland? And WHY is the judge at the Beltra Feis winking at everyone? Irish dance adjudicators are forbidden to interact with dancers even after the competitions are over. Even stranger, is the fact that Liffey is certain she has seen those winking eyes before.

Brenna Briggs is the author of eight Liffey Rivers Irish Dancer Mysteries and, for adults: MAIDS: Mothers Addicted to Irish Dancing. She was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, into a third generation Irish American family. For many years she thought that eating green-dyed bakery bread and sugar cookies with green icing on Saint Patrick's Day were the best things about being Irish. Her essays and short stories have been featured in Hornpipe Magazine, The Irish American Post, Canada's Irish Connections, The Sligo Quarterly Review, Irish Dancing and Culture Magazine and many other Irish American periodicals and newspapers. After spending six years in County Sligo, Ireland, where she wrote her first three books and looked at what seemed like most of the 3,000 heritage castle fragments, tombs and other ancient monuments marked on detailed local maps, she reluctantly moved back to the USA and now writes in the Driftless Area of Wisconsin in tiny Lancaster. There is not much to do here but write and read books from the excellent local library, so I have become much more productive. This is important because when I do get out and about to do book events, my readers have often asked me why it takes me so long to finish the next Liffey Rivers mystery. I am hoping to put an end to such probative questions and accelerate my output!
