This is the 4th book in the Ed Loy series - a book I've been very much looking forward to.
From the Blurb:
Ed Loy has made some changes. He has moved into a flat in Dublin's city centre, leaving the family home behind. Maybe now he can break free from the ghosts of his past.
But when a fifteen-year-old murder case is re-opened, Loy is hired by the victim's daughter to investigate the suspects ignored by the first investigation; a rich property developer, an ex-IRA man and Loy's least favourite sociopath, George Halligan.
Opening Lines:
It would have been one thing if they'd had to camp out for days on end not knowing when their mark was approaching: two men jammed fast inside a makeshift hide of fencing bales and felled saplings within a hawthorn copse one hundred metres up the hill from the road.
