Vincent Naylor has recently been released from prison but is almost immediately planning his next job- the one big score that means he can retire from a life of crime. Meanwhile Detective Bob Tidey is about to take the stand and commit perjury in order to support his embattled Garda colleagues. When a body is found and linked to a cold case Bob Tidey is assigned to the task force set up to investigate. The book is set in Ireland against the backdrop of their economic crisis. This is reflected in a gritty hard realism that the author reflects well in his writing. Read the full review here nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Amidst the downturn in the Irish economy as a result of the collapse of the Celtic Tiger a well-planned robbery occurs, the investigation of which is complicated by machinations inside the Garda.
A tainted yet principled detective goes above and beyond to solve this and related crimes, helped partially by a nun who was involved in the church scandals. At times, it feels as if outside events are dragged into the story merely to acknowledge their existence, but the plot isn't dragged down too much by their presence. ( )
