About the book: year / The fifth book about Jack Taylor. Ireland, mired in money and greed, no longer turns to the church for comfort or solace. But the beheading of Father Joyce in a Galway confessional horrifies even the most tormented man in the street. Jack Taylor, devastated by the recent trauma of personal loss, always believed he was beyond salvation. But a new job allows him to start over, and an unexpected partnership gives him hope that his only desperate dream - about a family - can still come true.
