1 journaler for this copy...
Well written story, set in Ireland, about an alcoholic former police officer or "Garda" turned de facto investigator. He is hired to investigate the suicide of a young girl, whose mother suspects she was murdered.
His struggle with alcohol is interestingly portrayed. The book is alternately funny and touching.
