NEVILLE, STUART<br />

Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012<br />

Ireland 1963. As the Irish people prepare to welcome President John F. Kennedy to the land of his ancestors, a<br />

German national is murdered in a seaside guesthouse. Lieutenant Albert Ryan, Directorate of Intelligence, is<br />

ordered to investigate. The German is the third foreigner to die within a few days, and Minister for Justice<br />

Charles Haughey wants the killing to end lest a shameful secret be exposed: the dead men were all Nazis<br />

granted asylum by the Irish government in the years following World War II. A note from the killers is found on<br />

the dead German's corpse, addressed to Colonel Otto Skorzeny, Hitler's favorite commando, once called the<br />

most dangerous man in Europe. The note simply says: "We are coming for you." As Albert Ryan digs deeper into<br />

the case he discovers a network of former Nazis and collaborators, all presided over by Skorzeny from his<br />

country estate outside Dublin. When Ryan closes in on the killers, his loyalty is torn between country and<br />

conscience. Why must he protect the very people he fought against twenty years before? Ryan learns that<br />

Skorzeny might be a dangerous ally, but he is a deadly enemy.<br />

RED COUNTRY<br />

ABERCROMBIE, JOHN<br />

Shy South comes home to her farm to find a blackened shell, her brother and sister stolen, and knows she'll<br />

have to go back to bad old ways if she's ever to see them again. She sets off in pursuit with only her cowardly<br />

old step-father Lamb for company. But it turns out he's hiding a bloody past of his own. None bloodier. Their<br />

journey will take them across the lawless plains, to a frontier town gripped by gold fever, through feuds, duels,<br />

and massacres, high into unmapped mountains to a reckoning with ancient enemies, and force them into<br />

alliance with Nicomo Cosca, infamous soldier of fortune, a man no one should ever have to trust . . .<br />

of fortune, and the alien Starfire, a former prisoner of intergalactic war who won't be chained again. As a loner,<br />
