My name is Joe Barclay and I am original from Dublin, Ireland. I live in Navan with my wife and three daughters. I have always been a keen reader of crime fiction novels. Irelands police force (An Garda Siochana) in particular is heavily featured in my book Beyond The Call. Although my book Beyond The Call is a work of fiction I have tried to capture the gruff and stark reality that is inherent in modern society.
