Ten years later Henry is in Dublin, working in Ratheen as a school caretaker. When he is caught in a bomb blast, he loses his leg for the second time. He is claimed as a hero, and before long Henry will discover he has other uses too, when the peace process begins in deadly secrecy...

Recensione:
"Brilliant" (Mail on Sunday)
"Told with pace and verve and bitter, black humour... Magnificent" (Financial Times)
"Doyle's tenth novel might be called The Dead Republic, but its vision of what Smart calls "the green thing" is as alive as any he has given us" (Independent on Sunday)
"There is lovely, brutal detail, as well as a grand swoop over the timeline of Ireland and America, just like the kind of film they just don't make anymore" (Financial Times)
"This is Ireland's most famous living writer tackling one of the most crucial periods in history" (Guardian)
