Description

Tralee is the setting for this murder thriller set in Ireland in 1941 Europe is on fire. Britain is on the verge of being invaded by the Germans. When Eamon Foley arrives back in Tralee the country is already choking with refugees who flocked there to escape the war in Europe. Jobs are scarce, food is rationed, resentment is rife and tensions are dangerously high. The Government has created the Local Security Force to help the Gardai. Volunteers are paid two shillings a day. Foley can't get a job. He's living with his mother and her new husband Liam Edge, who is a sergeant with the Gardai. So more out of desperation than duty, Foley joined the Local Security Force. Rioting in the major cities means that most of the regular Gardai are called away. So when his son-in-law Joe McCarthy is shot dead in a crowded pub one Friday night, Sgt Edge is left with just Eamon Foley and a handful of LSF volunteers to investigate. But then Foley spots a figure from his past and he's thrown into turmoil. Have they caught up with him at last? Was this killing a message that they knew where he was and they were coming to get him? Then his sister Mary is found dead in the town park. And his son is taken by a nun in a car. But the crusty Sgt Edge won't accept Foley's wild theory and insists on following proper police procedures. With deadly consequences."
