Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The body on the beach was that of a young man. he had been shot in the head at close range. Professionally. In the third of the Inspector Minogue series, a body washed up on a beach is the son of a prominent Irish family - but there is a catch: 'He's one of our own all right, but a Jew nonetheless.' Paul Fine was the son of a prominent judge whose family had lived in Dublin for generations and who had played a key role in the city's small, complex Jewish community. The evidence seems to point to a Palestinian-linked organization, but dogged and fascinating detective work, and an unexpected second murder, lead the Murder Squad in a wholly new direction. Minogue has uncovered an extremist sect, one which has political ambitions and, just as ominous, police and government connections. As he unravels the enigma of these murders, Minogue finds himself understanding something of the Jews of Dublin, people who feel bound to Ireland and yet remain outsiders. 'Matt Minogue, the magnetic centre of this superb series. and Brady's tone of battered lyricism are the music which keep drawing us back to this haunting series.' - New York Times.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A screenwriter needs to research Dublin's violent criminals, but falls prey to gangster chic. How deep is too deep for his research Ireland's Hundred Thousand Welcomes continues to draw immigrants to its faltering Celtic Tiger economy. For those hundreds of thousands of Poles - Catholic, hard-working, white and like the Irish, survivors of an overbearing neighbour - Ireland works. But the Tiger devours too. Barely a week in Ireland. 20-year-old Tadeusz Klos lies in a coma on a rainswept Dublin street. He will not survive. This murder is a tipping point. Gang violence has made Dublin's streets a battleground. Media outrage in Poland and Ireland push the Gardaí to come up with answers. Should the fabled specialist Murder Squad really have been disbanded three years ago Minogue is suddenly in demand. 'Whatever you need' he is told. With the Polish embassy pressing for answers, Garda brass passes on the pressure to Minogue. Yet Minogue's arrival is already resented in the city Garda station into which he has been parachuted. With little to go on, Minogue soon forms a picture of a chance event: bad timing, a swarm of drunken youths, racist impulses finding an outlet. Hecontinues to call in favours, and slowly that picture begins to cloud and turn to a different story entirely. Tadeusz Klos was no angel either. He was involved in petty crime back in Poland. Ready or not, Minogue is about to drop down a crevasse into Dublin's underworld. Not far from the busy world-class shopping and the crowded nightclubs, is where drug lords and their hired killers rule. 'The Celtic boom may have busted but it has left behind the crime that comes with prosperity. There are no happy endings with John Brady, no pulled punches. There is justice, and heartbreak, and the knowledge that the streets will be just as dirty and dangerous tomorrow.' - National Post (Canada).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - It has been a long winter here in the hills of southern Austria. Felix Kimmel, officer with the Gendarmerie, is staring at two bodies on a path in the woods. This is too big for the local Gendarmerie detachment. The Kripo from Graz soon take over. Experts though they may be, they want his help: he is a local, right But Felix's mentor, the old hand Gebhart, warns him to beware of these slick detectives as they have their own agenda. The dead men seem to be ausländers, Eastern Europeans. An autopsy reveals a diamond in one's digestive tract, and on the other, a tattoo. Then, the family whose call to the Gendarmerie led to the discovery of the bodies, perishes in a fire. Felix senses that the Kripo detectives' attitude to him has altered. Maybe he knows more than he lets on. And, they hint, whoever set fire to that farmhouse may come after Felix next. When he finds old maps that his father had hidden, he begins to wonder if his own tangled family history is not part of this. He must discover what his loathed grandfather Kimmel knew, or did, before the Kripo does. He sets out on that narrow, winding mountain road that climbs to the remote Kimmel farm. This is where history and politics collide, where the global crime wave that is sweeping across Europe crashes into a small town cop.…

Neuware - Old debts and the new booming Ireland make a deadly mixture.In the sixth of the Minogue series, the troubled son of an Irish-American tycoon is found bludgeoned to death in the trunk of a car at Dublin Airport.
