Galway's Edge: A Jack Taylor Novel (Jack Taylor Series) [electronic resource] : by Bruen, Ken.aut; CloudLibrary;
A secretive vigilante group called Edge cleanses Galway of its worst criminals. But when someone starts picking off Edge members, private detective Jack Taylor steps in to investigate. Edge, a shadow organization made up of the most powerful figures in Galway society, exists to rid the city of criminals and abusers who have evaded the law. Long wary of the organization, the Vatican is not pleased when rumors start swirling that one of the Catholic Church’s own priests has joined its ranks. And who better to ask to intercede than the whiskey-swigging ex-cop who always seems to have one foot in the pub and another among Ireland’s clergy? Lately, Jack has been spending his days sitting at the bedside of a man he put into a coma and taking care of a little dog named Trip, bequeathed to him by a dead nun. Then an envoy to the Archdiocese shows up at his door, asking Jack to go speak to a priest named Kevin Whelan and dissuade him from any involvement with Edge. Jack accepts the mission, but the next day Father Whelan is found dead, hanging from a rope in his own backyard. Would Edge really kill one of their own? And if not, who else would be bold enough to take on the most powerful organization in the city? As more Edge members are murdered, the Vatican grows alarmed that someone even worse will take their place. It’s up to Jack Taylor to nail the culprit before Edge is dissolved completely and Galway is thrown into chaos.General adult.

Akim Tamiroff, Michael Redgrave, Orson Welles, Paola Mori, Robert ArdenOriginally produced by Film Movement in 1955.The enigmatic Gregory Arkadin (Orson Welles) is more complex than Charles Foster Kane, but equally as wealthy, though the source of his fortune is highly questionable. The Wellesian plot device is Guy Van Stratten, a penny ante cigarette smuggler who starts up a romance with Arkadin’s daughter, Raina, in order to meet Arkadin. When Arkadin confronts Van Stratten with a dossier he has compiled on him to stop him from seeing his daughter, Van Stratten has achieved his goal. But Arkadin outsmarts him by getting Van Stratten to compile a confidential report on himself under the pretense that Arkadin is a little foggy on how he got to be who he is and figures he has made some enemies along the way. When the characters Van Stratten interviews all end up dead, Van Stratten fears that he, too, knows too much for his own good. He saves his own neck by getting back together with Raina, the one person Arkadin doesn’t dare touch.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

"TO FIND AN ANGEL, HE MADE A DEAL WITH THE DEVIL. Pericles "Perry" Christo is a PI with a past--a former cop, who lost his badge and his family when a corruption scandal left him broke and disgraced. When wealthy Upper East Side matron Julia Drusilla summons him one cold February night, he grabs what seems to be a straightforward (and lucrative) case. The socialite is looking for her beautiful, aimless daughter, Angelina, who is about to become a very wealthy young woman. But as Christo digs deeper, he discovers there's much more to the lovely "Angel" than meets the eye. Her father, her best friend, her boyfriends all have agendas of their own. Angel, he soon realizes, may be in grave danger. and if Christo gets too close, he just might get caught in the crossfire. This classic noir tale twists and turns down New York's mean streets and along Hamptons' beaches and back roads during a bitterly cold and gray winter where nothing is as it seems and everyone has something to hide. In an inventive storytelling approach, each writer brings his or her distinctive voice to a chapter of Inherit the Dead, building the tension to a shocking, explosive finale"--Provided by publisher.
