Description

London at the dawn of 1918 and Ireland's most famous literary figure, WB Yeats, is immersed in supernatural investigations at his Bloomsbury rooms.

Haunted by the restless spirit of an Irish girl whose body is mysteriously washed ashore in a coffin, Yeats undertakes a perilous journey back to Ireland with his apprentice ghost-catcher Charles Adams to piece together the killer's identity.

Surrounded by spies, occultists and Irish rebels, the two are led on a gripping journey along Ireland's wild Atlantic coast, through the ruins of its abandoned estates, and into its darkest, most haunted corners. Falling under the spell of dark forces, Yeats and his novice ghost-catcher come dangerously close to crossing the invisible line that divides the living from the dead.

Reviews
Praise for Disappeared: Quinn's is a highly original take on a much-traversed topic. He writes with melancholic elegance, and persuades us that the Troubles are never over -- Marcel Berlins * The London Times *
The Blood Dimmed Tide is a dark and gripping tale that takes the reader to Ireland's very own Wild West. Beautifully written, with a cleverly-constructed mystery at its core, the story blends crime fiction, politics and occultism in a way that keeps the reader interested in every aspect of the story -- Reader Dad
you'll find much to admire in the work -- Anne Clinard Barnhill * Historical Novel Society *
Praise for Disappeared: Written in peerless prose...A crime novel to be savoured -- Geoffrey Wansell * Daily Mail *
One of the most striking features of Quinn's novels is his compassionate approach to his characters -- Arminta Wallace * The Irish Times *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
