Shooting Sean

This is the 4th book in the Dan Starkey series and while it's not quite up there with my love of Christopher Brookmyre offerings this one is probably the closest yet. This time around Dan is hired to write a book on local boy turned Hollywood star Sean O'Toole preferably finished just in time for Sean's funeral. Dan's employer has taken it for granted that the target of Sean's newest film project will take a certain amount of umbridge and take care of the arrangements sooner rather than later. Being that Michael O'Ryan was one of the biggest mass killers known to patriotism Dan thinks he might not be far wrong. Things start off well for Dan but you just know that with his track record there will be trouble just around the corner.

Napínavá detektivka irského autora. Dan Starkey, zkrachovalý belfastský novinář, se zas jednou ocitl v pěkné šlamastyce, kterou si podle svého názoru ani nezavinil, ani nezasloužil. Sadistický gangster zvaný Plukovník po něm chce, aby zabil holywoodského herce Seana O'Toola. Aby Dana přinutil, unesl mu ženu a dítě.
