Bruen weaves all of them together in a tight thriller that features a healthy dose of Taylor‘s understated sarcasm. With fully developed characters and a plot that will keep you guessing, this belongs at the top of your TBR list.

I've only recently discovered Ken Bruen. Great Irish crime fiction. We were out and about with friends all day today and was happy to find this on my doorstep when we got home tonight. If you haven't read Bruen, put him on your list. @GroveAtlantic
