"I clamor for the next installment of Richard O’Rawe’s rollicking series of heist novels featuring James Ructions O’Hare."— Sarah Weinman, The New York Times Book Review "Mr. O’Rawe ... has written the most riotous caper novel since his own Northern Heist, and with luck, there will be more adventures ahead. "—Tom Nolan, The Wall Street Journal Ructions OHare returns in a thriller — based on one of historys greatest unsolved heists — pitting him against the IRA, Interpol, and neo-Nazis . . . When WWII ended, the allies discovered that a huge amount of gold bullion plundered by Nazi Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering had gone missing. Some believed the gold had been hidden in a train box car in Poland. Others that it was secreted in Lake Toplitz in the Austrian Alps. And a few thought it was buried in the Republic of Ireland, which was neutral during the war. When ex-IRA soldier Ructions OHare stumbles on a piece of Nazi memorabilia once owned by Goering, he begins to think that those who suspect the gold was in Ireland just might be on to something. But for Ructions to return to Ireland is easier said than done. For a start, the IRA is after him for not paying them a cut from a huge bank robbery he carried out in Belfast. And then theres the Neo-Nazis, who believe that Goerings gold rightfully belongs to them, and who are happy to kill anyone who gets in their way. And as Ructions gathers clues to the golds location and, as his many adversaries realize hes getting closer, its as if a noose is tightening around his neck...
