Detective Inspector James Fitzgerald returns in the fourth book in JJ Moriarty’s Irish detective series.
It’s summer and Ireland has a rare period of warm weather. Dubliners enjoy the few weeks of high summer they receive every year before the rain returns.
In Dublin’s docklands, where the world’s biggest companies have their European HQs, the most expensive room in the area’s most expensive hotel holds something ugly. The body of one of the world’s wealthiest men is found by housekeeping one morning, and the Gardaí know there’s been foul play.
The case is referred to the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation, and DI James Fitzgerald is tasked with finding this man’s killer.
As he works to find the murderer, James learns more about the dead man. He finds that he was in Ireland for more than just the favourable tax rate, and that the globe-spanning business empire may have been built on sand. Facing a hostile takeover, regulatory investigations and a rush to go public, the pressure was building in the dead man’s public and private life.
Though there were a billion motivations, just who murdered him on that warm summer’s day?
Genre: Mystery
