In the driver's seat of a Jaguar, on a country road, a good man burns.
Justice Garrett Quinn should have been at a sentencing. He was one of
the good ones, fighting for order in a lawless world. In a burned-out
car, on the outskirts of Cork, DS Katie Maguire finds what's left of
him. But this is only the beginning. The judge's death sparks a gang war
fought with bullets and bombs, and civilians are caught in the
crossfire. As the city spirals deeper into violence, Ireland's most
fearless detective must find the courage to fight for her hometown one
last time. Katie Maguire is no stranger to sacrifice--but she has lost
so much already. Facing new horrors each day, Katie must decide: can she
do her duty when she has nothing left to give?
