Brouhaha by Ardal O'Hanlon

The razor-sharp, violent and darkly comic second novel from actor, comedian and writer Ardal O'Hanlon. Dove Connolly is dead. That's not good for anyone in Tullyanna, never mind Dove.

Now his best friend Sharkey is home asking awkward questions about Dove's death, about the strange graphic novel he left behind, and, most of all, about Sandra. Sandra Mohan. Missing now for over a decade, whereabouts unknown.

This, however, is a town dead-set on keeping its secrets. And Sharkey is already drawing attention from all the wrong quarters... A mystery, a black comedy, a satire on Ireland's tangled politics of memory, Brouhaha is set in a small town on the Irish border during the uneasy transition to peace.

And peace doesn't come easy in these parts.
