Synopsis

Dark humour. Lawrence's long admission to a mental health unit is at an end, but on discharge he learns that he has been demoted from his very senior role with the Gardai Special Branch (Police) in Dublin, and has also been transferred to a relatively new detective unit in Limerick that appears to house a number of failed, odd and dysfunctional detectives. He wants his old job back and needs to save his marraige, all of which he believes, rests on him being a success with this new team. Still very very unwell and constantly hallucinating, he is having a go. Set against a backdrop of police, political, and business corruption, can Lawrence achieve this ultimate challange. A funny, warm and serious story that explores mental health stigma, hope and the drive required to overcome the obstacles thrown at this likeable man. Zany at times and mostly written as seen through the eyes of Lawrence, so the reader can experience his chaos for themselves. If you enjoyed TV shows like The Office, Monty Python and Father Ted or any films by the Coen Brothers, you will love this.
