A review by balthazarlawson
In the Morning I'll be Gone by Adrian McKinty
4.0
In October 1984 the IRA tried to blow up Margaret Thatcher and her cabinet at the Grand Hotel in Brighton.
According to this novel, a year before this an old school friend of Sean Duffy, an IRA commander, escapes from prison and heads to Libya. Desperate to locate him MI5 get Sean Duffy to help, even though he had already quit the RUC over an incident that was not his fault. It was more of a case of trying to find a way to get rid of him. Sean doesn't have high hopes of finding escapee but the investigations leads him into his past in Londonderry and old friends.
This is an exciting story, even though the start might seem a bit slow. The excitement builds to a climatic conclusion. Very worth reading and I look forward to the rest of the series.
