Stuart Neville signs an excellent first novel, very black, which culminates in violence. Under the sign of redemption, the frame presents Gerry Fegan, a former activist of the IRA or clearer former executor of dirty work, assassinations and attacks of all kinds. After a long stay in the shade, the "killer" found a different country, terrorism has given way to political negotiations in the framework of the peace process. The former leaders have become for the majority of policies some of which have not forgotten to flirt with practices at the margin, trafficking of all kinds. Gerry can not forget his past and 12 ghosts 'of beings who went to death as a result of his works' continue to haunt him; they encouraged him to do justice by liquidating the real sponsors and accomplices of the time. Ready to repay the price of his faults, Gerry has shaken political consensus that satisfies some of the various edges. The first deaths will shake the governments of the United Kingdom against a very fragile peace. The novel eyeing the policy without making its center, it helps to consider a bygone era and manipulation while using the secret services. The main character is quite successful, he takes us into his contradictions he assumes without hesitation.
