Synopsis

It’s their senior year in high school and the girl’s pipeline of new mysteries has run dry. In addition, they are beginning to worry about what will happen to their organization Les Mademoiselles after they graduate in June 1966. At her family’s annual reunion in the summer of 1965 Nancy picked up an interest in genealogy after talking with her grandfather’s older sister and her daughter. Her interest in researching her family’s history will show up various times as a minor interest while the girls continue to look for their next mystery.

Nancy’s sister, Shirley, and her friend, Emo, are interested in getting in on the fun. They conduct a campaign throughout much of the book for joining or taking over the Les Mademoiselles organization for the investigation of Mattydale mysteries after the older girls graduate.

Nancy’s interest in her family’s genealogy is what initially pulled her toward Ireland. She had to convince Colette and Sam to come with her since she didn’t want to go alone. Her grandfather had inherited a farm back in Ireland from a 2nd cousin, from a branch of the family that hadn’t immigrated. He invited her to stay at the farmhouse on his Irish farm that was located just north of the village of Upperchurch which was close to where the family had emigrated from.

It took Nancy a couple months to convince Colette and Sam to go to Ireland with her. At a St. Patrick’s Day celebration at Nibsy Ryan’s Pub on Tipperary Hill in Syracuse she was finally able to win them over. They arrived in Upperchurch in mid-July and settled into the inherited farmhouse formerly belonging to William McGrath III. It didn’t take long before the girls began to sense that there was something amiss with the circumstances surrounding William’s death in March 1965. They hadn’t been able to find a new mystery in Mattydale, but now, here in Ireland, a mystery had found them.

As the girls endeavored to discover more details about the death of William McGrath, their quiet Irish nights were shattered by the screeches of a Banshee. For those who believe in such creatures the screeches of the Banshee foretell the death of someone.
