Green hell Including a biography of Jack Taylor, by Boru Kennedy

Ken Bruen

Book - 2016

Taylor has hit rock bottom: one of his best friends is dead, the other has stopped speaking to him; he has given up battling his addiction to alcohol and pills; and his firing from the Irish national police, the Garda, is ancient history. He takes up a vigilante case against a respected professor of literature at the University of Galway who has a violent habit his friends in high places are only too happy to ignore. He rescues Boru Kennedy, a preppy American student, from a couple of thugs. Enter Emerald, an edgy young Goth who could either be the answer to Jack's problems, or the last ripped stitch in his undoing.
