A young man lies dead in an alley. Cracked ribs, broken jaw, fractured skull. Kicked in the head, too many times to count. With the Celtic Tiger purring and the Troubles in their death throes, Detective Sergeant John O’Neill is called to investigate. Meanwhile O’Neill’s partner, DI Jack Ward, a veteran Troubles detective, is receiving death threats from an unknown source. Ward needs to find out who’s making the threats and put a stop to them, before they follow through on their word.
The second novel in the DS O’Neill series, When Sorrows Come is a brutal exposé of the criminal underworld in the new Northern Ireland, a place where the dead are not all created equal.
Praise for Matt McGuire
‘[Brings] a Henning Mankell-style realism to the genre.’ Sunday Times (Ireland)

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
