GALWAY GIRL Jack Taylor, Book 15

Narrator Gerry O'Brien returns to transport listeners to the bleak and brutal world of former Irish Guard and reluctant private investigator Jack Taylor. Taylor, barely hanging on from the murder of his daughter, is stalked by a psychotic young woman who is intent on destroying him. Like an Irish shawl, Bruen's intricate weaving of literary, musical, sports, and political references wraps the listener in Taylor's complex world. O'Brien takes on this narration challenge and masterfully keeps listeners on track with the plot and its characters. The result is a highly engaging and disturbing ride-along on the seedy side of Galway. Bruen's indication that this is the penultimate installment in the series portends the upcoming final episode.
