An Irish Thriller.
When Paddy Brett is found murdered in Bullock Harbour, Dublin, he leaves behind a widow, two children and a sizeable fortune. If they can find it . . . For Paddy was one of the slickest financial operators in Ireland, with an outstanding - if not wholly legal - ability to hide money where the taxman wouldn't know about it.
Dublin inventor Johnny Constantine can't believe his childhood friend is dead or that he has been left in charge of Paddy's complex finances. He soon learns that the boy he once knew had become corrupt and amoral, had an unhealthy interest in teenage girls and that even the inheritance he left his family is far from above board, hidden in an illegal tax shelter.
He also realises several others are aware of Paddy's financial activities: his desperate family, his crooked colleagues, and members of Dublin's underworld plus their East-European affiliates. All of whom had a reason for wanting him dead . . .
