Great fun crime thriller love story - set in Dublin’s netherworld of gangsters, small time losers and lovers, the book tears along at breakneck pace to tell the tale of a young journo in search of the big scoop- who gets a little more than he bargained for. Really enjoyed this book.
Read this book back in college, picking it up for $4 at a used book stand. It's had the weird effect of staying with me for now nearly 20 years and has become the metric by which I judge comedy books. Definitely worth a read if you can snag a copy.
It is a crazy story, Several times I was going to pack it in, I perservered to finish it. May be this sort of life does go on, There is always someone better at getting in and out of problems without ending up dead, or completely losing it with in an inch of your life. I dont think I would read anymore of Ferdia.
