After being rebuffed by a potential lover, American creative-writing teacher Aaron McCloud comes to the craggy shores of Ireland's west coast "so he [can], in solitary majesty, feel sorry for himself" at his aunt Kitty's home. When an errant pig digs up a human skeleton in Kitty's vegetable garden, however, Aaron's plans for a pity party begin to derail. Hilariously witty, The Pig Did It is a unique blend of satiric comedy, suspenseful mystery, and charming romance—with a nod to Irish mythology thrown in as well. What fun! (AG)
