Opis

Love and hate emerge in unparalleled events as the O'Malleys are challenged by the darkest of evil forces known to humanity in this third book. The sons are besieged by unfolding mysteries of an amazing lineage of brave and noble ancestors beleaguered by mysticism, unusual religious beliefs, and unbridled determination to understand the true meaning of life. Yet, for the Nine Irish Sons, their investigations and confrontations are real. Despite each victory, the O'Malleys find themselves increasingly bewildered as they are incessantly hammered by rage and grief. They see themselves attached to their home as if they were tethered by some magical power, and yet, they are continually thrust out into unknown lands to face the worst cold blooded crimes known to the world. As James Joyce wrote, "We walk through ourselves, meeting robbers, ghosts, giants, old men, young men, wives, widows, brothers-in-love. But always meeting ourselves." And so it is the same with the Nine Irish Sons. Each, frightened by memories of a childhood of immense loneliness and worry, each clings to a misunderstood Irish history, and fantasies of a better future. They find solace only in their unique ability to challenge and succeed against the cruelest of evil forces, and their unparalleled love for each other.
