Detective: A Life Upholding the Law

Tom Connolly joined An Garda Síochána in 1955, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather. His early days on the force were spent in various villages and towns around Ireland, tracking petty thieves, raiding pubs and patrolling country roads on his bicycle. Back then, before the dawn of DNA profiling, policemen relied on local knowledge and intuition – as well as careful evidence-gathering and interrogation techniques – to make their cases.

And things are complicated on other fronts for him too: his friend Jimmy Sharpe is tied up in an undercover BNP investigation which is causing problems, and he's discovered a happy slapping film on his son's mobile ...

The Yiddish Policemen's UnionThe Yiddish Policemen's Union

The starting premise of Michael Chabon's novel rests on a single historical factoid: On the eve of World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt suggested that European Jewish refugees be resettled in the Alaskan territory. From this tiny nugget, the Pulitzer Prize–winning novelist constructs a richly hued noir alternate history/mystery fable, complete with Yiddish jargon and gangster argot. At once a gripping whodunit, a love story, and an exploration of the mysteries of exile and redemption.
