Awesome Story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I saw the movie "Veronica Guerrin" , and was intrigued to learn more about this tragic story of Irelands drug gangs. The author spends most of the time on the gangs, but thats ok, as I knew the story about Veronica Guerrin. Its a page turner, and an eye opener! Hard to believe that such evil men exist.
quick and reliable
