When Nora Burns' son is kidnapped and killed by two crooked cops working for the mob, Nora leaves Ireland, where she had been using Mafia money to shelter orphans, and travels to New York to find the killers
Found this book a little hard to stay connected with until about halfway through, then shit truly hits the fan. Decent novel about the IRA and Italian Mob set in the New York in the 1990's. Ending was a little lackluster. I wanted total carnage to unfold and have it end on a really bad note seeing as the rest of the book wasn't exactly a happy story. Fun read regardless.
