Description: The first Chief Inspector Peter McGarr mystery, back in print after more than a decade! McGarr is called in when an American has his skull smashed open on board his own schooner. Both the ancient boat boy and the plump steward claim his injury was an accident. But when he learns that a lovely woman might be involved, McGarr suspects more than a boating accident. With his wife, McGarr combs the coast of Ireland and the misty streets of Dublin, and discovers that more than standard police work is involved. A bombing report implicating the IRA has been stolen, and McGarr, an IRA sympathizer, must either take the heat off the case, or be blamed for the theft.
