Why we picked it
A strong pick for readers who like dark comedy threaded through a crime-tinged chase. Its eccentric setup and unpredictable contest between Walter Minsk and Chief Bill Reilly promise a sharp, offbeat read.
About this book
Walter Minsk has had enough of a world that ignores his ideas, his inventions, and his grand hope for peace and human togetherness. Frustrated by what he sees in everyone around him, he decides that if people will not change on their own, he will force the issue with a harsh, chilling lesson.
When his plans fail to work as intended and residents of Sterling in Northern Ireland begin disappearing, Chief Bill Reilly is pulled into the mystery. What follows is a darkly comic pursuit between hunter and hunted, with the outcome far from certain. Eamonn Bradley sets up an offbeat fiction story that mixes missing-person intrigue with grim humor and a strange battle of wills.
