Jack Taylor, a disgraced ex-cop in Galway, has slid
further down the slope of despair. After a year in London
he returns to his home town of Galway with a leather coat
and a coke habit. Someone is systematically slaughtering
young travellers and dumping their bodies in the city
centre. Even in the state he's in, Jack Taylor has an
uncanny ability to know where to look, what questions to
ask, and with the aid of an English policeman, apparently
solves the case. Now he stands poised on the precipice of
the most devastating decision of his career, while at the
same time a rare opportunity of real and enduring love
also materialises. As with The Guards, the city of Galway
dances, jeers, consoles, threatens, entices, near kills
and yet continues to be the ultimate ground of Jack
Taylor's transcendence, all he understands of heaven and
hell.
