The Dying Breed

Read The Dying Breed Storyline:

What's in a name? Apparently everything for Ed Loy, because that's the
only information Father Vincent Tyrrell, brother of prominent racehorse
trainer F. X. Tyrrell, offers when he asks for Ed's help in finding a
missing person. Even the best private eye needs more than just a name,
but hard times and a dwindling bank account make it difficult for Loy to
say no. He is not without luck, however. While working
another case, Loy discovers a phone number that seems linked to F.X.
found on an unidentified body. Thinking it more than a coincidence, he
begins digging into the history of the Tyrrells—a history consumed with
trading and dealing, gambling and horse breeding—and soon realizes there
is more to the family than meets the eye, a suspicion confirmed when
two more people with connections to the Tyrrells are killed.
On the eve of one of Ireland's most anticipated sporting events, the
four-day Leopardstown Race-course Christmas Festival, all bets are off
as Loy pursues a twisted killer on the final leg of a reckless master
plan. In The Price of Blood, Declan Hughes once again
paints an arresting portrait of an Ireland not found in any guidebooks.
Deadly passions beget dark secrets in a chilling story that will have
readers on edge right up to its shocking conclusion.
