About the Book

Blurb: Collin O´Shea, a blue Collar guy, gets in trouble with the Feds and the wife for his casual bounty hunting. (First-person/fiction) I have stated on my book´s cover that this is a suspense novel which makes me reluctant to share much of my plot. But it´s also a historical novel. The indictment of an FBI agent in Boston (for abbetting Whitey Bulger and Steevie Flemmi in the year 2000) draws Collin into browsing the fugitive pages of various (Eh, make that ALL) law enforce- ment websites. He has happened upon a $250,000 runner and dropped the dime, but the Feds haven´t responded as planned. This is too much for the wife and the book begins on the morning of her flight back to her daddy´s farm in N. Ireland. Adultery enters this void for Collin which compounds his struggle and leads him into peril. (The reader will also learn how airplane parts are made down at Collin´s forge shop.) Enjoy!
