“The Deirdre O’Dare series is Kate Thompson’s first published work, beginning with It Means Mischief in 1998. The books follow Deirdre O’Dare through Dublin’s theatre world as she navigates romance, friendship, and the chaos that comes with both. The first book became a bestseller in Ireland.”
“More Mischief (1999) picks up Deirdre’s story, and Love Lies Bleeding (2008) returns to the character after a gap of nearly a decade. The series has a witty, warm tone that draws on Thompson’s own experience in Irish theatre.”
