The Irish police knew right away that the mastermind was a brazen Dublin gangster named Martin Cahill.

When he did, his pursuers were waiting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e With the storytelling skill of a novelist and the nose of a detective, Matthew Hart follows the twists and turns of this celebrated case. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e ?For those who might associate museums and lofty works of art with elitism and stuffiness, Hart reveals a far more compelling world filled with desperation and betrayal.?\u003cbr\u003e ?Nick Owchar, \"The Los Angeles Times\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e ?What makes this book so enjoyable is the author's deftness and restraint with what was a big splashy story.?\u003cbr\u003e ?Katherine Powers, \"The Boston Globe\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Plume","offers":[{"title":"Irish Game | Matthew Hart | Paperback | 9780452284616 | Used: Very Good | True Crime 1774924","offer_id":50756115366146,"sku":"1774924","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/51TG943R7WL.jpg?v=1792023936","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/irish-game","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
