The Ghosts Of Galway by Ken Bruen, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

From Ireland'apos;s most lyrical crime fiction writer, The Ghosts of Galway pits perpetually falling Irish angel Jack Taylor" (Mystery Scene) against a dangerous band of heretics. As well-versed in politics, pop culture, and crime fiction as he is ill-fated in life, Jack Taylor is recovering from a failed suicide attempt. In need of money, Jack has been hired as a night-shift security guard. But his Ukrainian boss has Jack in mind for some unexpected off-the-books work-getting his hands on what some claim to be the first true book of heresy, The Red Book, which is currently in the possession of a rogue priest hiding out in Galway. Despite Jack'apos;s distaste for priests of any stripe, the money is too good to turn down. Em, the woman-of-many-guises who has had a vise on Jack'apos;s heart and mind for the past two years, reappears and turns out to be entangled with the story of the same blasphemous book. As the novel twists toward a violent end, Jack is increasingly plagued by ghosts-by the disposable and disposed of in a city filled withas much darkness as the deepest corners of Jack'apos;s own mind." | The Ghosts Of Galway by Ken Bruen, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
