Story
Somewhere in the once-placid streets of San Francisco, a young man is on the run, charged by the media with a crime he didn't commit, hounded by demagogues, hunted by a desperate police department. One cop knows that Kevin Shea is innocent of a brutal racial murder. An ambitious politician will use Shea for her own ends. And a down-and-out lawyer is all that stands between Kevin Shea and an even more atrocious crime. For when there's no law left, justice is the only hope.

TERRIBLE NARRATOR

Great story

If you could sum up Dead Irish in three words, what would they be?
A surprise endingWho was your favorite character and why?
Abe. He listens to Hardy even when he doesn't want to. He trust Hardy. They seem to be best buds.What does David Colacci bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
A great narration with different personalites.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes even though I wasn't able but when I could I did.Any additional comments?
I listened to "Nothing But The Truth" and had to start the series. I am glad I did. It is a series worth starting at the beginningA great listen.

Ok. Old recording.

David Colacci's reading was very good. I just wish he'd had a little more to work with.
Lackluster plot
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Would you consider the audio edition of Dead Irish to be better than the print version?
Yes, David Colacci makes all things better.What did you like best about this story?
Hardy's unwillingness to return to his former life no matter how enticing his ex-wife and former father-in-law make it. He's a man who is true to his word.Have you listened to any of David Colacci’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I've listened to many of David Colacci's performances. They are all great!Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It was interesting to hear the original story which I somehow missed. Knowing how the characters change and develop in later books makes this even more bitter sweet.VINTAGE DISMAS HARDY
