THE WRONG KIND OF BLOOD by Declan Hughes: LA private eye Edward Loy has returned to his boyhood home of Dublin for his mothers funeral. On the way home from the service a friend asks him to find her missing husband leading to bodies, danger, and a fearsome organized crime gang. Loy is hampered by the fact that the Dublin he grew up in no longer the Dublin of today. To be released 3/06, should please fans of Dennis Lehane and George Pelecanos as it did me.
