How important is loyalty? This is the question Grayson O'Toole finds himself confronting in his latest mystery. Loyalty is what ties Sean Sweeney to Northern Ireland. He remains exiled from his family to honor past commitments. And his son Tim may be the one to pay the price for Sean's unwillingness to let go of the past. When Tim is murdered, Grayson wants to help. After all, Tim's father, Sean, was a good friend of Grayson's own father, Shamus, and Grayson sees it as his duty to find the killer. He's shocked when Shamus specifically asks him not to take the case. As Shamus sees it, it is a matter of loyalty: Grayson should respect his father's wishes. Grayson doesn't see it in the same light. He feels compelled to solve Tim's brutal murder. What he uncovers will change the way he views his father and the entire O'Toole family. Loyalty may be a strong bond, but it can also be a terrible curse. The latest entry in P. M.
