"Wild Irish Yenta lives up to its title—this keenly-observed, funny mystery features a plucky heroine who converts to Judaism and throws herself into synagogue life, only to discover a corpse in the temple parking lot. And so begins this whimsical cozy that combines an insightful look at interfaith marriage, the complexities of friendship, and the politics of religious institutions."

"Debut novelist Sanderly has written an inventive mystery that satirizes the modern Jewish suburban experience. In Wild Irish Yenta, Philip Roth meets Agatha Christie, and the result is a page-turner that also explores the interlocking dynamics that exist within an interfaith marriage, a family, and a Maryland synagogue."
