Dusty Bluebells is a musical, hearty and spiritual family mystery set in an Irish seaside town.

"A powerhouse of accomplishment..."

"You could imagine Dusty Bluebells as a period drama on the BBC, with its fascinating setting of Larne, Co Antrim in the 1940s where Angeline King brings a rich, cultural history to life in a family saga spanning 50 years...Pithy with Ulster Scots, old rhymes, cures and sayings, there is a sense of magic to it all. A book to warm your heart on a cold winter’s night."
