About this ebook
Following the tiger kidnapping of the wife of a bank official in a small, west of Ireland town, Tom Judge, a divorced bank inspector in his mid-fifties, is sent to investigate and to liaise with the police enquiry. When the police suspect that the kidnap victim and her husband might be complicit in the crime, Tom disagrees and single-mindedly persists in exploring other options. Secrets, lies and deception are gradually uncovered as a sequence of dramatic twists enables Tom to slowly edge towards the truth. But his stubborn persistence has an adverse impact on his budding relationship with banker Angela Tuohy and results in a reappraisal of his solitary future and his relationships with his ex-wife and daughter.
“Red-Headed Angel” is a 99,000 word mystery/suspense novel, set in modern Ireland against a background of economic uncertainty and erosion of public confidence in bankers, politicians and clergy.
