What's in a name? Apparently everything for Ed Loy,
because that's the only information Father Vincent Tyrrell,
brother of prominent racehorse trainer F. X. Tyrrell, offers
when he asks for Ed's help in finding a missing person. Even
the best private eye needs more than just a name, but hard
times and a dwindling bank account make it difficult for Loy
to say no. He is not without luck, however. While
working another case, Loy discovers a phone number that
seems linked to F.X. found on an unidentified body. Thinking
it more than a coincidence, he begins digging into the
history of the Tyrrells—a history consumed with trading and
dealing, gambling and horse breeding—and soon realizes there
is more to the family than meets the eye, a suspicion
confirmed when two more people with connections to the
Tyrrells are killed. On the eve of one of Ireland's
most anticipated sporting events, the four-day Leopardstown
Race-course Christmas Festival, all bets are off as Loy
pursues a twisted killer on the final leg of a reckless
master plan. In The Price of Blood, Declan
Hughes once again paints an arresting portrait of an Ireland
not found in any guidebooks. Deadly passions beget dark
secrets in a chilling story that will have readers on edge
right up to its shocking conclusion.
