Finding Dan is part historical fiction, part genealogical detective story. IRA man Daniel O'Rourke was 'the most dangerous man in Dungannon'; Mal is his great-nephew, determined to find the real man behind the tales told by his family. This is a legend of evasion from arrest, internment on a diseased ship and hunger strike; it is the legend too of glories on the Gaelic football pitch, and a life spent on the run from the police and from the women who might have loved him. As Mal's search deepens, Ireland's troubled history interferes and a new legend of Dan emerges.

Autorenporträt
Mark Quinn has always been creative. A strong desire to fulfil a childhood dream is what spurred him on to write and self-publish his first book back in 2012. He lives in Manchester, England, with his lovely wife and furry and feathered friends. He is active in charity work and supports a variety of local causes. Mark's wish is to entertain and amuse people with his poems, taking them out of their normal surroundings for just a brief time while they absorb his imagination through his writing; hopefully sending them back to reality with new things to think and be curious about. Happy reading!
