About this listen
A torso in a suitcase looks like an impossible case, but Sean Duffy isn’t easily deterred, especially when his floundering love life leaves him in need of a distraction. So with detective constables McCrabban and McBride, he goes to work identifying the victim.
The torso turns out to be all that’s left of an American tourist who once served in the U.S. military. What was he doing in Northern Ireland in the midst of the 1982 Troubles? The trail leads to the doorstep of a beautiful, flame-haired, twentysomething widow, whose husband died at the hands of an IRA assassination team just a few months before. Suddenly Duffy is caught between his romantic instincts, gross professional misconduct, and powerful men he should know better than to mess with. These include British intelligence, the FBI, and local paramilitary death squads - enough to keep even the savviest detective busy. Duffy’s growing senseof self-doubt isn’t helping. But as a legendarily stubborn man, he doesn’t let that stop him from pursuing the case to its explosive conclusion.

this is an excellent audio book and a great yarn
The whole story is brilliantly set against the back drop of the Northern Island Troubles, there are large helpings of Irish humour and a great collection of understated determined characters to help bring the story to life, hats off to the author and hats of to the narrator

Compelling background on Northern Ireland
Great reading. The great strength of these novels is the day to day background of Northern Island in Troubles, and life going on in the streets and in the cop shop. This story is framed by the beginning & end of the war in Falklands. Duffy meanwhile gets into deeper & deeper trouble. Betrayal, double cross & death is everywhere.

Another great Sean Duffy book
The Sean Duffy series has so much going for it. An attractive main character, a fascinating period of Irish history, and a great plot. Topped if to perfection by the wonderful narrator

Oh this just gets better
Such an interesting mix of thriller, poetry, humour and history. Brilliantly narrated, this is very addictive. I've listened to books one and two back to back. Kind of feel like I might need a bit of Jane Austen before I launch into book three.
