Summary:
"Self-destructive, pigheaded, and overfond of the bottle,
Jack
Taylor
(Iain Glen, Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey) is a forty-something ex-cop trying to earn a living as a private detective in his native Galway.
Taylor
has burned a lot of bridges, but he still has a knack for uncovering ugly truths. In his new trade,
Taylor
finds evil at every turn: the serial murders of young female factory workers, a vicious vigilante group executing summary justice, and a sadistic nun dubbed 'Lucifer' by her former charges.
Set
against the rugged backdrop of western Ireland, this crime noir series depicts a country in transition, caught between the certainties of the past and the anxieties of a post-bubble future. Those same strains play out in the life of
Jack
Taylor
, a man seeking to reinvent himself in a community with a long memory and an uneasy attitude towards change."--Container.
