Travel Guide
Seventy Times Seven
The title is taken from a Bible quote in which St Peter says there is no limit to the forgiveness you can have for someone – it could be seventy times seven.
Ireland – Newry
Northern Ireland in 1992 was a very different place to what it is now. The political intrigue between the British Government and IRA was at its height and their work and undercover goings in when dealing with informants were shadows which blackened much of the landscape.
Imagine then a hidden traitor in the very heart of the republican movement – “The Ghost”.
AL – Tuscaloosa
Small town Alabama – or one horse Alabama depending on your take of it all. This is a town forgotten by time and by civilization if the novel is anything to go by. It has a certain swagger, a certain buzz and the town where Danny has been tasked to go in order to track a target down to assassinate them.
