A review by scotchneat
All the Dead Voices by Declan Hughes

3.0

Hughes is pretty good as far as thriller writers go. I like Ed Loy, the protagonist, who is Irish, a bit bitter and an idealist (a combo I like). He tends to get beat up.

Loy is asked to find out who's leaking information about drug smuggling out of the police, and a perfectly noir femme fatale comes along and asks him to look into who killed her father 15 years ago. Oh yeah, and there's an old hit by the IRA to figure out.

What's refreshing is that not every resolution is made for the movies.
