Summary
The first time somebody tried to kill him was an accident.
The second time was deliberate.
Now Paul Mulchrone finds himself on the run with nobody to turn to except a nurse who has read one-too-many crime novels and a renegade copper with a penchant for violence. Together they must solve one of the most notorious crimes in Irish history.
Or else they’ll be history.
A Man with One of Those Faces is the first book in Caimh McDonnell's critically acclaimed Dublin Trilogy series, which melds fast-paced action with a distinctly Irish acerbic wit.

"It's just crying out to be made into a movie. The writing is whip-smart and funny." (Books Ireland Magazine)

Enjoyed it and it's not my poison of choice
I don't normally go for murder mysteries, with a touch of thillers and a sprinkling of who dunnit's asking the way, but I was told that this book had a nice vein of humour running through it and I can honestly say it was an enjoyable listen.

Humorous thriller
The mix of characters was a bit confusing and the humour a bit forced at times , but overall it was entertaining and a clever story line.

Terrific
Let’s hope that Colin Farrell takes the hint. Brilliant story. Excellent characters. Beautifully written. Thanks Caimh.

Good story, but tone down the accents, please!
The story is excellent, with plenty of twists and turns, while still just easy enough to follow the plot.
Unfortunately, the overwrought narration nearly made me stop listening a few times. Each and every character does not have to have a different voice! And possibly the absolutely worst South African accent in a strong field.
Because of the good writing, I will give the narration one more chance.

Hilarious, can’t wait to start the next
I have read a few Irish crime series and was surprised this never came up in my searches.
Loved this from the start, it has me in stitches. It’s like early Janet Evanovich but better.

fab
I loved this. The narration was great, the story twisty. It put me in mind of the TV series The Bix Beiderbeck affair, chaotic with a main theme

OK but hints of misogyny
Good story but typical of a story written by a man with bias towards women.

Laugh out loud and what a great story…
I loved all the characters , brilliantly narrated by Morgan C Jones, The story was fast paced as well as both tugging at your heart strings one minute and making you laugh the next. Great twist as well. Who could ask for more?

already bought the next one
Enjoyed this book. Decent characters, simple but interesting enough plot laced with a bit of Irish humour.
The narration was OK but the recording not the best. It was very obvious when cuts/edits were made or new recording sessions were started. Variable volume and background noises as well.
Still, I want to hear more of this series so book 2 is loading as I type.
