About this listen
From the New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-winning author Adrian McKinty comes the origin story of his most famous creation, Detective Sean Duffy.
Belfast, 1980, is the apocalypse. Bombings, riots, army on the streets, low flying helicopters, and ever-present rain. The grinding Northern Irish civil war between Protestants and Catholics has been going for a decade now. Hated by both sides are the police.
Sean Duffy Year 1 takes us into that world. Newly promoted Detective Sergeant Sean Duffy is given his first command at Carrickfergus CID.
In this prequel novella, McKinty takes listeners through Duffy’s first two weeks on the job. A case to solve and a chance to impress his bosses, if, of course, he can get out of it alive.

Pacy intelligent writing
As a huge Sean Duffy fan it was nice to read this prequel. The author brings the people alive with entertaining dialogue and wry moments. You feel as if you have actually visited Northern Ireland. Plots good too.

Awesome - just gutted to find out it was so short
I love everything Adrian McKinty does - when I saw a new book available I jumped at the change to get it - and didn't even look at the length of it - I just couldn't believe that it was finished before it had even begun - I am not sure if I would or wouldn't have spent a credit on it if I had realised before hand that it was as quick as it was - maybe not.
