Synopsis

Former IRA operative Martin Fallon has survived prison, the bottle, and a police pursuit that sent him running the length and breadth of Ireland. As Fallon turns forty years old, the IRA needs his help again, this time to break Patrick Rogan, the leader of IRA Ulster, out of prison before he is executed.But not all is as it seems. When a newly freed Rogan commits murder in the name of a ruthless IRA sect, Fallon’s rescue mission will become a deadly clash between those who wish to save Ireland, and those who seek to destroy it.
