"John Gilligan is no altar boy, by his own admission.
One of Ireland's most infamous criminals and drug lords, and widely believed in the court of public opinion to have ordered the cold-blooded murder of crime reporter Veronica Guerin, he remains a defiant figure.
In this remarkable book—the first of its kind—journalist Jason O'Toole distills hours of sensational face-to-face, no-holds-barred interviews with the feared criminal into a fast-paced and jaw-dropping account of the Irish gangland scene. And Gilligan doesn't mince his words. ‘I didn't believe in God, but I know I'm going to hell.'
Starting out as a petty thief in Dublin, Gilligan rose to the status of crime lord earning £10 million from drugs within his first two years. He mixed with ‘the General' Martin Cahill, with Gerry ‘The Monk' Hutch and with John Traynor. He was deeply involved with money laundering, miraculously survived an assassination attempt, and it is said he has millions of euro stashed away at a secret location, for future use.
O'Toole demands answers from Gilligan for all the hard questions; some of his responses will make readers shiver. Gilligan knew that laying all his cards on the table could mean signing his own arrest warrant... or worse. But he has done it here. And with a cast of all the country's deadliest underworld figures, this exposé is nothing short of explosive."
"The sequel to the critically acclaimed The Children of Gods and Fighting Men, The Words of Kings and Prophets is the powerful historical fantasy audiobook by Shauna Lawless.
Ireland, 1000 AD. Gormflaith is unhappily married to Brian Boru, High King of Ireland, and although a queen she struggles with her limited position. As an immortal Fomorian with the secret gift of magic, Gormflaith has a burning desire: to find and destroy the hidden fortress of her sworn enemies, the Descendants, who seek to kill her kind at all costs. She begins to use her magical powers, and discovers she is more skilled than she ever realised... but can she control what she will become?
Meanwhile Fódla, the Descendants' healer, mourns her banished sister but clings to life as the guardian of her young nephew. She seeks a place of safety for them both, but he has secrets of his own that could threaten everything - and Fódla must do all in her power to keep him hidden away from those who would use him for evil.
When a mysterious man comes to King Brian's court, his presence could spell disaster or deliverance for both Gormflaith and Fódla - and for Ireland herself. For he is Tomas, an ambitious immortal with few scruples - and he will do anything to see his plans become reality.
Soon, mortals and immortals alike are drawn towards a bitter conflict that could decide the future of Ireland and all her people.

"Irish detectives struggle to make sense of the evidence in this mystery that keeps you guessing.
A relaxing sailing trip on his day off becomes anything but for DSI Mick Hays when a body is found at sea.
The coastguard pluck the corpse from the ocean with ease, but establishing the dead man’s identity won’t be straightforward. And when pathology indicates he was murdered, Hays’ partner DI Maureen Lyons is put in charge of the investigation.
Good forensics and a nose for trouble lead Lyons to a small hamlet in an isolated part of the coast. But the locals, who are running a smooth bootleg liquor operation, are none too forthcoming with information.
Suspicions are raised when a known associate of the victim goes to ground. But who is he running from? The police or the killer themselves? Lyons will have to work quickly and solve the puzzle before another body is found.
MURDER IN A SAFE HAVEN is the tenth standalone book in a series of thirteen featuring DSI Mick Hays and DI Maureen Lyons, which is set on the west coast of Ireland."
"Too late to find a missing man, are Irish detectives in time to catch his killer?
It is only a passing comment in the post office in a remote part of Western Ireland that alerts police to the disappearance of Davin Faherty. But foul play is established when his unceremoniously wrapped corpse turns up in a bog.
His brother falls under suspicion, but why kill over a near-useless piece of grazing land?
DI Maureen Lyons leads the investigation but relies on trusty Mulholland, the old-school local policeman stationed in Clifden, for the legwork.
She has other problems: an illegal cannabis farm and a prospector from a US minerals company who won’t take no for an answer.
Ultimately, however, DI Lyons will need to get her hands dirty before the killer vanishes into the coastal mist.
MURDER IN AN IRISH BOG is the eleventh title in the best-selling police mystery series set in Galway on the west coast of Ireland by David Pearson."
"From the author of Gull and Backstop Land, Where Are We Now? is a novel about lost love, growing older and the realities of life in a society still haunted by decades of violence.

His wife, the great love of his life, has long left him for a Southerner, and his daughter has fled Belfast for London in search of work and an easier life.

By turns moving and funny, topical and sharp, it is a life-affirming story of a life not yet over."
