"The result is a breathtakingly brutal piece of crime writing that is relentless in its pursuit of the truth"
Declan Burke in the Irish Times

"Among many other things, Murder Memoir Murder is a brilliant evocation of Ireland's border culture, its contentions and unwritten protocols" Garrett Carr, author of The Rule of the Land

"Hugely evocative, deeply felt and beautifully written, Murder Memoir Murder is a brave, brutal exploration of our shared past, his family’s own personal history and the act of storytelling itself." Brian McGilloway

Murder Memoir Murder is both a memoir and a crime fiction story involving a hunt for a missing IRA informer, set in the landscape of a rural parish in South Tyrone. It is also a meditation on truth and storytelling. The novel investigates two true unsolved murders in County Tyrone – one that took place in 1922 during the Irish Civil War, the other in 1982 at the height of the Northern Ireland Troubles – and the web of connections hidden in a tightly-knit community. At the heart of this true story with fictionalised elements is a searing and honest portrait of home and how the author’s family organised itself after the Troubles.

Anthony J. Quinn’s nine crime novels have received critical acclaim from The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Independent, The Financial Times, The Daily Mail, The Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Telegraph, The Sunday Express, Der Spiegel, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Irish Times, the Irish Independent and other newspapers. His debut novel Disappeared was shortlisted for a Strand Literary Award in the United States by the book critics of the San Francisco Chronicle, The LA Times, The Washington Post and other US reviewers. It was also listed by Kirkus Reviews as one of the top ten thrillers of 2012. After its UK publication in 2014, Disappeared was selected by the Daily Mail and The Sunday Times as one of their Best Novels of the Year. It was also long listed for the Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year. He currently lectures in creative writing at Queen’s University Belfast and runs the Lost Landmarks storytelling project in Counties Cavan and Tyrone

Verified Purchase

This book was powerful and hard-hitting. I have always loved this author's crime novels, but the final chapter of this book was stunning and satisfying.
