Martin Peters finds himself in Berlin. Once a British spy involved
in a controversial loyalist shooting in Belfast, he spent time in
Berlin infiltrating the Punk scene just before the Wall came down.
Now in his thirties, he is a detective in the local police force.
He is struggling - two naked headless corpses were dredged from the
Havel river. There are no clues apart from a single word tattooed
in Cyrillic on their left arms and the fact they were found a week
apart after Christmas at exactly the same spot. Visiting his
favourite swingers club, the seedy Der Zug, he comes across the
bloated Lothar Blucher. Pressing his former Cold-War informer for
help, Peters is instead led to a video showing the horrifically
violent murder of a man tied to a chair. Not long after, a former
girlfriend, Heike, gets in touch. She has received the same video -
and rapidly the dead bodies start piling up at the hands of a
demonic serial killer. With crimes darker than The Killing and The
Bridge, you will be riveted by this gripping Martin Peters story
set in Berlin, Belfast and London.
To look at Martin McGuinness' life is to follow Northern Ireland's
own transition from conflict to peace. Martin McGuinness: A Life
Remembered tells the remarkable story of McGuinness' journey from
IRA leader to deputy first minister of Northern Ireland, and
features all the milestones in his life - from the darkest days of
the Troubles, to the Good Friday Agreement and his roles in the
devolved government at Stormont. `Few public figures have made such
a journey from violence to peace as Martin McGuinness, and many
people will acknowledge the contribution and commitment to the
common good which he made in the latter part of his life.' -Frank
Sellar, Moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland `He was a
great man in my opinion. ... Martin led the IRA when there was a
war but he led the IRA into peace. He genuinely believed in
reconciliation even when it made people uncomfortable.' - Sinn Fein
President Gerry Adams
