For the first time in more than a decade, Detective Inspector James Fitzgerald is working alone. He is called to Maynooth, a quiet university town where most of the local Garda work involves shepherding drunk students home after a night out.
This investigation is different. In broad daylight a man is stabbed repeatedly by assailant who then vanishes into thin air. The two men seem unconnected. No one recognised the attacker, no one can say why it happened.
As the victim clings to life, the investigation hits an immediate wall. Family is uncooperative. Friends tell James they’re shocked and don’t know why it happened. No one has any leads.
But when James digs deeper, he finds the victim’s record to be murky and his connections to the country’s underworld extensive. The list of potential suspects grows and the motives pile up. As he pulls at the threads, James uncovers the truth. This attack was connected to a criminal conspiracy, one spanning the entire country.
But the more he finds out, the further James gets from catching the attacker. With uncooperative witnesses, suspects in hiding and key evidence missing, James will need to use all his experience and ability to uncover the truth of what happened that day in Maynooth.
Genre: Mystery
