Description

A Tale of Redemption in a World Cloaked in Darkness Priest, an explosive novel by the acclaimed author Ken Bruen, takes you to the heart of Ireland, a land flourishing in unparalleled richness, yet devoid of faith and comfort in the Church. Jack Taylor, devastated by the recent trauma of personal loss, has always believed himself to be beyond salvation. But a new job offers a fresh start, and an unexpected partnership provides hope that his one desperate vision-of family-might yet be fulfilled. The narrative, however, rapidly unravels into a chilling blend of exorcism, predatory stalking, and curious allure, weaving a deadly net of conspiracies around him. The eerie specter of a child shadows Taylor's every waking moment, merging reality with nightmares. Explosive, unsettling and totally original, Ken Bruen's writing captures the brooding landscape of Irish society at a time of social and economic upheaval. Priest is evidence of an unmistakable literary talent.
