And Death in Erin Patrick Gore

A peacemaking trip to Belfast leaves a U. S. presidential candidate at the mercy of international terrorists. His survival depends on Kerne, a veteran of clandestine warfare now blackmailed into playing guardian angel. Kerne allies himself with Wintergrave, the mysterious master-manipulator who is making an end-run around religious strife and the foreigners who fish in Irelands troubled waters, to lead an independent Ulster into the new Europe. A literate, erotic thriller, up-to-date as a National Security Council briefing.
