Summary

Winner of the 2017 Ned Kelly Award

Another thrilling mystery featuring Detective Sean Duffy and his most dangerous investigation yet.

Belfast, 1988. A man is found dead, killed with a bolt from a crossbow in front of his house. This is no hunting accident. But uncovering who is responsible for the murder will take Detective Sean Duffy down his most dangerous road yet, a road that leads to a lonely clearing on a high bog where three masked gunmen will force Duffy to dig his own grave.

Hunted by forces unknown, threatened by Internal Affairs, and with his relationship on the rocks, Duffy will need all his wits to get out of this investigation in one piece.

Critic reviews

"Narrator Gerard Doyle has provided the voice of Adrian McKinty's Sean Duffy since the first audiobook of the series. Returning for Book 6, he's more in tune with Duffy's complexity than ever before.... McKinty's blend of dark drama with perfectly timed humor and intensely plotted action is performed by Doyle as though he's intimately familiar with Duffy's mind, heart, and body. Listeners comprehend the vastness of Duffy's emotion without a caricatured delivery. Doyle delivers another winning narration." ( AudioFile)

Don't you just love Sean Duffy

The whole series gave a great feel of N.Ireland in the 80's and of course love our dogged hero who never ever let's it lie!

Got to love Inspector Duffy

Another excellent period novel starring the formidable but strangely vulnerable Inspector Duffy during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. If you lived through those times you will especially enjoy the period detail. No mobile phones, very little technology so the story takes prime place which is as it should be. Gerard Doyle is the perfect narrator for Duffy. A very good all round read/listen.

Compelling

This is an oddly comical tale, dark and worryingly familiar to anyone who lived through the troubles in Northern Ireland - great characters, troubled themselves and believable. Good narration - I shall listen to more of McKinty!

Takes a little while to get going, but worth it

This is the second of his books I have read, and again it took me a little while to get into it. But it is definitely worth it, and it is fantastically well read.

Excellent

Another excellent chapter in the Sean Duffy series. I love the way the story unfolds at a leisurely pace, the way it hangs together, the colour brought by the supporting characters and the perfect narration. I really enjoyed this - and the others in this series. Highly recommended.
