Fiachra Clancy: Friend, lover, poet, wit, raconteur, autodidact, philosopher, and Government assassin. Fiachra is going through the motions, as much as any assassin can, living life on the edge, life through sarcasm and bar fly philosophy…
Fiachra has been set up and everyone close to him is being rubbed out, Fiachra decides to run. He ends up in the last place he wants to be, Boyle, his home town that he hasn't been back to in eight years. A town gripped by recession and strangled by seediness, nothing is at is seems and nobody can be trusted.
The one-liners in this story will draw you in, and make you smile wryly, while the richly overlaid intelligence and humour will keep you reading. There is a poignant melancholy to the character, which will keep more romantic-minded readers hooked, and the action is delivered in a high-octane thrill-a-minute style, which will satisfy even the lustiest appetites for action.
There’s a lyrical charm to the scenic descriptions of Ireland’s lush green countryside, rolling hills and bleak small towns. The action, perfectly described drama, razor sharp humour, knowing winks to works such as Hamlet and Ulysses, add up to a sense that this story is an epic of our time.
