Opis

Jack Maguire's life is a mess. Separated from his wife and son, and stuck in a cycle of unpaid bills, perpetual hangovers and Family Court sessions, he becomes a dismal shadow of his former plucky self. But when he is caught up (along with his boy) in a bomb explosion, this retired IRA leader quickly gets back on track. Fluent in Arabic, he acts on an overheard conversation and then instantly pulls together an enviable crew of ex-military (including Tom Duffy, the retired head of the Special Branch). His mission? To annihilate the Muslim fanatics who are terrorising Dublin and prevent an imminent massacre at the football stadium. He meets brick walls and roadblocks at every stage of his revenge attempts, particularly when the American Embassy get too closely involved. This heart-stopping rollercoaster of a thriller has global politics, terrorism, murder, suspense and Ireland at its very core. Think the IRA, CIA, American Embassy, Garda, Special Branch and ex-Croatian Army elitists and then throw in plenty of grit, a father's unstoppable love for his son and an epic plot. And that's State of Vengeance.
