In his day, north of the Liffey, John Foley Sr. was known as a hard man; nobody crossed him without suffering the consequences. He was a member of the Irish Republican Army, their money-man for over ten years. People lived and died on his ability to raise and deliver cash. From the malevolent hands of the Third Reich came his biggest successes...and his most profound defeats.
“I was a friend of the Reich because they were the enemy of my enemy.”
John Foley Jr. knew the man he buried in 1972 was his father, but he didn't know who his father was. Saddled with an incomprehensible legacy and fantastic tale, Foley must wade through a cryptic puzzle describing an unholy alliance between the Nazis and the Irish Republican Army. From the quiet Minnesota village of Clontarf to the vibrant cities of Europe, Foley traces his father's larceny, murder and treachery. As he attempts to clear his Da's name, Foley stumbles upon a greater conspiracy: the Final Solution to disguise an economic resolution.
