"Rain slicked streets, riots, murder, chaos. It's July 1992 and the Troubles in Northern Ireland are still grinding on after twenty-five apocalyptic years. Detective Inspector Sean Duffy got his family safely over the water to Scotland, to 'Shortbread Land.' Duffy's a part-timer now, only returning to Belfast six days a month to get his pension. ... But then a murder case falls into his lap while his protégé is on holiday in Spain: a carjacking gone wrong and the death of a solitary, middle-aged painter.
