The Irish countryside of the late 1970s is a place still haunted by
folklore and legend, by ghosts who rise from the fields on misty
nights, and by old secrets and even older hatreds. Michael, a shy,
quiet boy, grows up among the whispers and feuds of his small
community, little suspecting that his own family is caught up in
one of its darkest stories. But when a neighbour dies suddenly and
mysteriously, Michael cannot ignore the rumours that link his own
father to the dead woman. Searching for answers, Michael learns
that none of those he loves are quite what they seem. And he
discovers that becoming a man means that the choice between love
and abandonment, loyalty and betrayal, survival and death, is not
as easy as he once believed.

They found her on the beach, frozen, like a statue carved in ice...
Post-war Boston is down on its luck, and desperate to reinvent
itself. But promises of a brighter future sound ever more hollow as
the worst winter in recent memory tightens its grip. No one is
interested in a string of murdered women - everyone would much
rather pretend they don't exist. But the latest victim was loved...
Old friends Cal and Dante are both struggling to find a way to live
in a city that seems to be leaving them behind. The hunt for a
killer gives them new purpose, as well as making them powerful
enemies. But they believe in justice and second chances, and they
will see this thing through - whatever the cost.
Duncan's whole world is the orphanage where he lives. Aged ten, he
is sure that his mother is dead until the day she turns up to claim
him. Maggie Bright, a soprano who was once the talent of her
generation, now sings in a run-down bar through a haze of whisky
and regret. She often finishes up in the arms of Joshua McGreevey,
a Vietnam vet who earns his living as part of a tunneling crew
seventy feet beneath the Bay. Thrown into this adult world of
mysterious suffering, Duncan finds comfort in an ancient radio -
from which tumble the voices of Apollo mission astronauts who never
came home - and dreams of one day finding his father.

In 1950s Boston, the best way to survive is keep your head down and
your mouth shut. But Cal and Dante prefer to do the right thing,
not the sensible one. When a body is discovered tarred, feathered
and shot, it is dismissed as a gangland killing. But Cal O'Brien's
cousin, detective Owen Lackey, recognises the murder as the typical
retribution for IRA informers. Owen knows that no one in the
tight-knit Boston Irish community will talk. He turns to Cal and
Dante for help, sending them into the city's shadowy underbelly.
But there's a war on its way - and they're walking straight into
the middle of it.

Two years after Cal and Dante destroyed the heart of the Boston
Irish mob and splintered the Boston political landscape, everyone
is out for themselves and trying to claim a piece of the city. It's
early summer but already the city is in the grips of a heat wave,
which doesn't help tensions any as the fractures within Boston's
underworld are finding their way to the streets in payback
shoot-outs between mobsters and the police. When a body is
discovered at the Charlestown locks, tarred and feathered and shot,
it appears to be a gangland killing, and almost immediately
dismissed. But Cal's cousin, detective Owen Lackey, who intended to
intercept a boat coming into Boston weighed down with stolen guns
and ammunition, recognises the murder as typical retribution for
IRA informers and knows that with this murder there may be much
more at stake than his superiors realise. Keen to uncover those
responsible, he asks Cal and Dante to help search the
Irish-American enclaves of Dudley Square, Dorchester and South
Boston for some sign of the killers. It is a journey that will take
them into the shadowy parts of Boston, a world of packed dance
halls, Irish wakes and funeral parlors, of down-and-out immigrant
rooming houses, bars, and secret meeting halls, and, ultimately, to
the discovery of a terrorist plot that will shake the city to its
core and bring them head-to-head not only with Cal's past but with
the IRA Army Council itself.
