The authentic Irish hero returns in Book 2 -- as heroic as ever. Patrick Mac Ireland is a rebel WITH a cause: Ireland''s right to be one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Book One -- the first in the series -- explained how Mac Ireland as a young idealistic Irish patriot set out in the 1970s to drive England out of Ireland but quickly realized he had to first drive British Agents out of the IRA. Book 2 -- the second in the series -- picks up where Book One ended in 1980. Mac Ireland continues to hunt down British Agents inside the IRA with the help of a Northern Ireland Protestant detective, whose family members were killed by British Agents, and a Southern Irish detective, who is outraged by how the Irish Government not only turned its back on Catholics in The North, but also how the Irish Government colluded with the British Government. This is a riveting story of Irish heroism but also of shocking Irish betrayal: how top Dublin politicians sold their souls for English gold and how top IRA men betrayed The Cause. Mac Ireland, without fear or favor, takes them all on, and their British handlers, administering the only type of justice available. As in Book One, Mac Ireland is shown to be not only a man of heroism but also a man of learning. When not battling the British Army and hunting down Irish traitors, he expounds on England''s imperialism, Catholicism, Zionism and Palestine-the other Holy Land divided by England. All with a sense of history and a desire for Irish freedom will love this gripping novel... Mac Ireland will continue to be one of their favorite Irish heroes.
