Produktbeschreibung
A decade ago, Shan narrowly escaped the clutches of a secret right-wing cabal hidden within the English government. He embarks on a journey of understanding to the Isle of Man in search of his Celtic past. Little does Shan know that his would-be kidnappers are once again in hot pursuit, and the facts he will uncover delve deeper than he could have imagined-even into secret government groups and political conspiracies. Also involved in this dangerous game of cat-and-mouse are Inspector Maloney of the Irish GARDA and a former enigmatic member of the IRA and those wishing to do him and his father, harm. Can Shan untangle the many-layered mysteries that await him on the Isle of Man and outwit his pursuers? St. Brendan's Lighthouse and the Falcon's Nest, the second novel in The St. Brendan Series , is an action-mystery novel deftly woven into the fabric of the Isle of Man-landmarks, architecture, and the famous Isle of Man TT motorcycle race bring the setting to life and invite the reader to delve into its history along with Shan. Bringing in characters from The Three Coins, Lohan's father's novel, St. Brendan's Lighthouse and the Falcon's Nest is a text that speaks through its plot and its very construction about the importance of family and history. "This road was a universe unto itself, for if thoughts were leaves and hopes were the winds upon which they drifted, this landscape would be brimming and deep, recognized for what it contained if your heart only had eyes."
