Nedavno otkryvsheesja "Sysknoe agentstvo MKM" Bridzhit i Pola nakhoditsja na grani razorenija, ne tolko iz-za neistovogo temperamenta i vyzyvajuschikh voprosy metodov ikh kollegi Banni Makgerri, no i iz-za postojannykh intrig so storony konkurentov.

Kas mäletate mehi, kes keerasid majanduse tuksi ja purjetasid seejärel oma jahtidel minema? Võtke teadmiseks - keegi on hakanud neid maha nottima.Dublin on kesk kuumalainet ja inimesed hakkavad närvi minema. Keldi tiiger on päriselt surnud, skvotterid on üle võtnud põhja läinud panga peakorteri ja kohtuprotsess kolme kinnisvaraarendajast kaabaka üle on muutumas farsiks. Kõige selle keskele ilmub kuratlik sekt, mis nõuab verist kättemaksu lihtrahvale tehtud ülekohtu eest.Paul Mulchrone ei hooli sellest, tal on omad probleemid. Tema äsja asutatud detektiivibüroo võib peagi allavett minna. Üks partneritest ei räägi temaga vägagi mõjuval põhjusel ja teine on, näiliselt põhjuseta, täiesti kadunud. Kas Paul suudab oma firmat piisavalt kaua vee peal hoida, et mõista, mis seos on Bunny McGarry värvikal minevikul ta kadumisega?Kui seadus ja õiglus ei tähenda enam sama asja, siis kumma teie valiksite? "Päev, mis ei tule iial" on Caimh McDonnelli Dublini triloogia teine raamat, mis ühendab ootamatute pööretega kriminaalsed sündmused ehtiirlasliku teravmeelsusega.

Paulil on eriline töö - ta on memmelausuja. Oma ülimalt tavaliste näojoonte tõttu suudab ta teeselda ükskõik keda, kelleks iganes vanadekodu elanikud teda peavad. Mõnikord on ta kadunud poeg, teinekord võõraks jäänud vend, või siis keegi, kes võib aidata vanal väsinud hingel sisemist rahu leida. Brigit on medõde, kes Paulile kõik need lootusetud juhtumid leiab. Ühel päeval soovib ta, et Paul külastaks veel üht "klienti", surevat meest, kellel pole kunagi käinud külalisi. Kahjuks ajab vanamees Pauli segamini kellegi mitte nii kalliga ja üritab teda tappa. Pauli pussitatakse haiglas ja vanamees sureb. Ning siis läheb lahti: teda üritatakse tappa, ta põgeneb, kuid ei tea, miks ja kelle eest. Koos liiga palju krimiromaane lugenud õde Brigiti ja suurpärase, kuid jõhkrate võtete ja ropu suuga politseinik Bunnyga tuleb lahendada Iirimaa ajaloo üks kurikuulsamaid inimrööve ... või muidu saab neist endist ajalugu."Sellise näoga mees" on Caimh McDonnelli "Dublini triloogia" esimene raamat, mille tempokas ja üle võlli minev sisu on põimitud teravmeelse Iiri huumoriga. Ideaalne raamat, kui tuju vajab tõstmist. Ühtviisi nii põnev kui ka pööraselt naljakas.Eesti keeles on McDonnellilt ilmunud "Kummalised Sõnumid" (2021) ja "See võluv mees" (2022).

Getting into prison is easy, it's getting out that's tricky.Almost everyone in prison will tell you they're in there for a crime they didn't commit, but Anthony Rourke really means it. That's because he's actually Bunny McGarry, who has got himself into one of Nevada's finest penitentiaries under false pretences. He is there to bust someone else out. The Sisters of the Saint, no ordinary bunch of nuns, find themselves caught between a rock and a hard place when two of their order are taken hostage. The only way to ensure their safe return is to trade them for the mysterious man who is now Bunny's cellmate. Rumours abound as to who this man really is, but seeing as nobody is allowed to communicate with him in any way, figuring that out will be tricky.The last thing the situation needs is further complications, but when Sister Dionne comes into contact with an UFO cult, she recognises it as a massive con job. The reason she is so sure is because the whole thing was her idea in the first place - and now she is determined to put an end to it.The clock is ticking, the prison authorities are suspicious, and lying low has never been a McGarry strong suit. Can Bunny and the Sisters pull off an audacious prison break against near impossible odds?

Together, they must solve one of the most notorious crimes in Irish history...

The gig - as prey in leprechaun hunt for a bunch of Wallstreet jerks - goes as badly as it sounds. He could leave it there and write it off as a harsh lesson learned, but fourteen months later when Smithy comes up with a plan to take his revenge on the man behind it all, it is too good to resist.What is it they say about best-laid plans? Instead of teaching his nemesis, Louis, a valuable lesson, Smithy ends up saving him from an assassin. From there, Smith and his friend Diller are dragged into his opponent's messed-up world.

Dorothy Graham is dead. This is hugely inconvenient, not least for her. Luckily, she has planned for this eventuality. Now, if any of her truly dreadful family want to get their hands on her money, they will have to do so via a fiendishly difficult and frankly bizarre competition of Dorothy's devising. Just because you're dead, it doesn't mean you can't enjoy a last laugh at the expense of people who made your life miserable.Paul Mulchrone, to his unending credit, is neither related to Dorothy nor happy that she is dead. What he is, however, is a contestant in this competition whether he likes it or not, which he definitely doesn't. He and his girlfriend, the formidable Brigit, are supposed to be running MCM Investigations, a detective agency. Instead, they have to go into battle against Dorothy's bloodsucking relatives. As if that wasn't enough, they get hired by the aforementioned dead woman to find out who killed her.DI Jimmy Stewart is retired, bored out of his mind and contemplating lawn bowls. When the offer comes to get back into the crime solving business, it is too good to turn down. But when he finds himself teamed up with the nephew of a man he imprisoned, and a flatulent dog, he starts to think that taking up lawn bowls wouldn't be such a bad idea after all. The Final Game is a standalone crime novel perfect for readers new to Caimh McDonnell's blackly comic take on his hometown, as featured in the international bestselling Dublin Trilogy books. His previous works have been optioned for TV and nominated for awards, which they stubbornly keep refusing to win.
