What you need to know before your trail

When the death of an old friend calls him back to Northern Ireland, Connor Fraser sees it as a way to distract himself from his growing troubles at home in Stirling. He’s estranged from his partner, Jen, and can’t seem to find a way to bridge the growing gap between them. Meanwhile, his beloved grandmother’s health is deteriorating, while all Connor can do is watch on helplessly.

But, after spotting three familiar faces at the funeral, faces with ties to Northern Ireland’s bloody past, Connor quickly learns that there’s a lot more to the death of his old friend than just a random traffic accident. But before he can properly investigate, he’s lured into a trap and attacked.

Pursued by ruthless professionals who don’t care if they bring Connor to their powerful masters alive or dead, he must go off grid and on the run. As he tries to untangle the web of deceit and lies that has ensnared him, Connor is faced with choices and losses that threaten to break him. With his back to the wall, can he unravel a mystery from the past that could shatter the peace of the future, before it’s too late?

Travel Guide

Belfast

This is the main location in the novel as Connor leaves Stirling and heads here to sort something out. The city is well evoked and you get the dark corners, the drug-fuelled square and the  feel of the city after the Troubles. The famous Shankill Road is a feature in the novel as is Falls Road and you get some history at the same time which really elevates the story and background.

Over to Scotland and Stirling and St Andrews are mentioned and appear briefly but only to set reminders of Connor’s life there and his link to Simon and their associates.
