The Cold Cold Ground (Detective Sean Duffy #1)
Adrian McKinty
3.88 · 24 ratings · Published: 01 Jan 2012
Featuring Catholic cop Sean Duffy whose outsider status in the mostly Protestant RUC makes it as hard to do his job as the criminals he’s fighting, this is the start of a new series set in Troubles-era Belfast. A body is found in a burnt out car. Another is discovered hanging from a tree. Could this be Northern Ireland’s first serial killer, or another paramilitary feud?
