Publisher's Summary
“Adrian McKinty is a gifted storyteller I love to read, and Sean Duffy is a character you will never forget.”–Don Winslow, #1 internationally bestselling author
From New York Times bestselling author Adrian McKinty comes the next thrilling mystery in the Edgar Award-winning Sean Duffy detective series
Slamming the door on the hellscape of 1980s Belfast, Detective Inspector Sean Duffy hopes that the 1990s are going to be better for him and the people of Northern Ireland. As a Catholic cop in the mainly Protestant RUC he still has a target on his back, and with a steady girlfriend and a child the stakes couldn’t be higher.
After handling a mercurial triple agent and surviving the riots and bombings and assassination attempts, all Duffy wants to do now is live. But in his final days in charge of Carrickfergus CID, a missing persons report captures his attention. A fifteen-year-old traveler girl has disappeared and no one seems to give a damn about it. Duffy begins to dig and uncovers a disturbing underground of men who seem to know her very well. The deeper he digs the more sinister it all gets. Is finding out the truth worth it if DI Duffy is going to get himself and his colleagues killed? Can he survive one last case before getting himself and his family out over the water?

McKinty Strikes Again
DI Sean Duffy is Ireland's answer to John Rebus - though darker and funnier. A brilliant, strangely life affirming saga of a homicide RUC Detective set in 1980s Ulster.

All expectations met
The author produces his usuhigj standard in this entertaining title. It's a satisfying rounding out of Duffy's character arc with some humour to sweeten the deal. My only disappointment is that I will have to wait sooo long for the next title.

One of his best
Brilliant writing, plot and characterizations, as usual. Have always loved the Sean Duffy series - and the Tom Waits’ references in the book titles are an added bonus. Great narration too!

No, it can’t be the last Duffy story!!!
I knew 60 seconds in that this book would be just as superb as all the others in the series. And this both thrilled me and filled me with dread because I never want the stories of Det Duffy to end.
Gerard Doyle was his utterly brilliant self.
The action, drama and black humour on the money.
Come on McKinty… one more???
