Finding Dan

Finding Dan is part historical fiction, part genealogical detective story. IRA man Daniel O'Rourke was 'the most dangerous man in Dungannon'; Mal is his great-nephew, determined to find the real man behind the tales told by his family. This is a legend of evasion from arrest, internment on a diseased ship and hunger strike; it is the legend too of glories on the Gaelic football pitch, and a life spent on the run from the police and from the women who might have loved him. As Mal's search deepens, Ireland's troubled history interferes and a new legend of Dan emerges.
