DAVID PEARSON'S LATEST MURDER MYSTERY

Irish detectives Maureen Lyons and Mick Hays face one of their hardest cases yet…

When a successful bookmaker is robbed and killed during the annual Galway Races, the motive seems clear.

But when the money turns up untouched, more questions are raised than answered.

Top Brass want the case wrapped up. The pressure is on DI Maureen Lyons to find the killer.

However, the police didn’t count on having to deal with a troublemaker within their own ranks.

Rigorous detective work will be needed to find the culprit. But with more than a few suspects, the police are stretched to their limit.

It may well require the luck of the Irish – and some underhand shenanigans – to crack the case.
