The near-naked, mutilated body of a young black woman is washed up
on a remote beach in the west of Ireland. The search to find her
killer takes Timothy O'Mahony far from his placid existence as a
Garda sergeant in Bangor Erris into the corruption and machinations
surrounding the election campaigns for the next President of
France. With his prime suspects in the inner circle of Laurent
Delahaye, the main opposition contender for the Presidency and
womanising one-time leader of the Social Democratic party, O'Mahony
finds that even senior French judges and policemen cannot always be
relied upon to be impartial when a case may have political
implications. His own position becomes increasingly difficult as he
follows the trail to the Congo and finds a link between its brutal
dictator, a French oil company, at least one of the suspects, and
the dead woman. When he loses the cooperation of his French
colleagues and is taken off the case, O'Mahony, in his search for
justice for the murdered girl and her family, finally has to call
on the help of the Irish travelling community, known for their
distrust and dislike of the Irish police.
