Book description
America - the land of opportunity, a place where economic prosperity
beckons: - but not for PI Jack Taylor, who's just been refused entry.
Jack resumes his old life in Galway. But when he's called to
investigate the frenzied murder of a student, he remembers an
encounter with an over-friendly stranger in the airport bar. A
stranger who seemed to know rather more than he should about Jack.
After several more murders and too many encounters to be
coincidental, Jack believes he may have met his nemesis.
But why has he been chosen? And could he really be dealing with the
Devil himself?
Ken Bruen
was born in Galway, Ireland. After turning down a place at RADA, and
completing a doctorate in Metaphysics, he spent 25 years as an English
teacher in Africa, Japan, South East Asia and South America. An
unscheduled stint in a Brazilian prison where he suffered physical and
mental abuse spurred him to write and, after a brief spell teaching in
London, he returned to Galway, where he now lives with his daughter.
