Mirror Mirror Patrick Emmett

JACK HAS A NEW ADMIRER... MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL, WHO'S THE MOST DANGEROUS ONE OF ALL? In the third action-packed Dublin Tale by Patrick Emmett (Mike Faricy's Irish alter ego), dashing detective Jack Dillon, formerly of the US Marshals, is still detailed to a special detective unit in Dublin, Ireland. American ingenuity (on both sides of the law) meets Irish tough guys (also on both sides of the law) in this humorous international mystery, to deliver hard-boiled crime fiction at its funniest! When an armored truck is robbed at a small airport outside of Dublin, one of the thugs hired to guard it is killed. Enter Jack - because the job looks exactly like the work of an American criminal he escorted to jail a couple of years back. But the surviving eyewitness says the shooter was an old lady. Things just don't add up. Jack had better put the pieces together quickly because it turns out the dead thug was the brother of local crime boss Eamon Dunne, and Dunne looks ready to tear Dublin apart to get vengeance. Jack's friend with benefits, Abbey, is not the girl you'd take home to mama, but she has very useful connections who could help Jack out - if only he would connect. When he finally does, will it be too late? Jack, pick up the phone! WHO WILL LIKE IT: Fans of Dev Haskell and rascals like him. Also for fans of Robert B. Parker, Elmore Leonard, Carl Hiaasen, Lee Child, strong Minnesota men - especially when transplanted to Ireland, and drinkers of Guinness everywhere. Faricy is the next Carl Hiaasen. - Crime Scene Mike Faricy is the author of the bestselling Dev Haskell series as well as the bestselling Corridor Man series which is written under the pseudonym Nick James.
