The Wily O'Reilly: Irish Country Stories

In this delightful collection of short stories, New York Times bestselling author Patrick Taylor takes readers back to the colorful Ulster village of Ballybucklebo and into the earlier life of the formidable Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly. Long before he became the senior partner of the local medical practice, O'Reilly was a man of sharp wit and deep compassion, earning his nickname 'the wily O'Reilly' through his clever handling of eccentric patients and local scoundrels alike. The stories span his time as a young medical student, his experiences during the Second World War, and his early days in the village, offering a heartwarming look at his courtship of Kitty and his development into the beloved, if occasionally cantankerous, physician fans have come to know. Combining previously published favorites with new material, this collection serves as both a perfect introduction to the Irish Country series and a nostalgic treat for longtime readers.
