If You Like Gene Kerrigan Books, You’ll Love…

Gene Kerrigan Synopses: Set in modern Dublin, Little Criminals by Gene Kerrigan is a story that bristles with tension and expectation, a story about what happens to the fragile things – friendship, love, compassion – when all rules are broken. Justin and Angela Kennedy are doing well. They have wealth, position, love, children, and a future that seems limitless. Into their lives comes Frankie Crowe, an ambitious criminal tired of risking his life for small change. Together with a crew of singularly dangerous men, Frankie decides that a kidnapping could be the first step toward a better life.

The Midnight Choir by Gene Kerrigan deals with moral dilemmas and Dublin emerges as a city of ambiguity: a newly-scrubbed face hiding a criminal culture of terrible variety. Small-time criminals have become millionaire businessmen, the poor are still struggling to survive, and the police face a world where the old rules no longer apply.
