A helicopter crash off the coast of Ireland sets off an international crisis in this "cracking conspiracy thriller worthy of le Carré" ( Irish Independent , IE). Susie Monaghan was on the cusp of stardom when her life was cut short by a tragic helicopter crash. After a full investigation, her death was ruled an accident: case closed. But a hungry young journalist named Jimmy Gilroy isn't buying the official story.  Before dying, Susie's path had crossed with an unlikely gallery of powerful men: an ex-Prime minister with a carefully guarded secret; the businessman brother of a U.S. Senator angling for the Oval Office; and a billionaire investor with his eye on an extremely rare commodity. Might there also be a link between Susie's death and a deranged security contractor operating in Congo?  Piece by piece, Jimmy uncovers a bizarre nexus of coincidence among these disparate people and events, revealing a conspiracy of frightening reach and consequence—one that could cost him his life. "Glynn delivers an intricate plot and relentless suspense in this taut, top-notch thriller about the evils that men do." — Booklist , starred review
