Revenge on the Island: A compelling mystery with a dark twist (DI Liam O'Reilly mysteries Book 5)

REVENGE IS SWEET.

How do you solve a murder when you're the number one suspect?

Fifteen years ago Patrick Finney was sentenced to life for the brutal murders of four women. It was one of the most high-profile cases in Irish history and one that defined Detective Inspector Liam O'Reilly's career. O'Reilly was instrumental in bringing Finney down.

Now Finney has escaped from a high-security prison and he's not content to stay on the run.

He wants revenge and he's prepared to stop at nothing to get it.

Abandoned by the very people he's employed by O'Reilly finds himself in a predicament that leaves him running out of options. There is only one man who can help him. But it's a man he vowed he would never contact again, and the consequences of his association with this phantom could be far worse than O'Reilly could ever imagine.

When the hunter becomes the hunted the rules of the game have to change.

This is a chilling mystery that O'Reilly will never forget.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT REVENGE ON THE ISLAND:

An action packed, edge of your seat, heart-racing suspense keeps the pages flying by until the dynamite explosive finish that you won't see coming. – Lena

WOW I could not put this book down once I started, it has got its full on case of revenge and how it was all going to come to a high was impossible, but this guy never gives up and boom it's one cracking read. – Booklover Bev

A great read and very hard to put down. – Maureen

Absolutely brilliant! The Island series is quite extraordinary and really stands out for me. This edition [book 5] in the series is extremely poignant, as we've already got to know and love all the characters and their backgrounds. However it all comes together in a horrific way. - Carol

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

After reading English at 3 Universities and graduating from none of them, I set off travelling around the world with my wife, Ann, finally settling in South Africa, where we still live.

In 2013 Ann dropped a rather large speaker on my head and I came up with the idea for a detective series. DS Jason Smith was born. Smith, the first in the series was finished a few months later.

3 years and 8 DS Smith books later, Joffe Books wondered if I would be interested in working with them. As a self-published author, I agreed. However, we decided on a new series – the DC Harriet Taylor Cornwall series.

The Beekeeper was published and soon hit the number one spot in Australia. The second in the series, The Perfect Murder did just as well.

I continued to self-publish the Smith series and Unworthy hit the shelves in 2018 with amazing results. I therefore made the decision to self-publish The Backpacker which is book 3 in the Detective Harriet Taylor series and was published in July 2018.

After The Backpacker I had an idea for a totally new start to a series – a collaboration between the Smith and Harriet thrillers and The Enigma was born. It brings together the brooding, enigmatic Jason Smith and the more level-headed Harriet Taylor. Dropzone followed shortly after and the third in the series, The Raven Girl finished things off.

Miranda is something totally different. What was to be a stand-alone psychological thriller, it is a real departure from anything else I’ve written before. The ending begged for a sequel and, Mistress was born. Medusa completes the Miranda trilogy.

There are now 25 DS Smith books available with many more planned for the future.

I wanted a break from the crime thriller genre so I came up with The Divide - a macabre horror tale of survival, but crime will always be my true love.

A new series featuring Irishman, DI Liam O'Reilly begins with Blood on the Island, and that was followed by ten more mysteries set on the island of Guernsey.

When I'm not writing I love sailing, guitars and jumping out of perfectly good planes. I'm lucky to have a huge lake on my doorstep as well as a world-class skydiving drop zone.

    REVENGE ON THE ISLAND presents a dreadfully disturbing, foreboding act against O'Reilly. New information turns this deed into shocking, dire news. A gruesome discovery followed by an insidious maneuver may have disastrous results. Another ghastly find makes the situation catastrophic.
    An action packed, edge of your seat, heart-racing suspense keeps the pages flying by until the dynamite explosive finish that you won't see coming.

    REVENGE ON THE ISLAND IS A MUST READ!

    Many thanks to the author / Books n All Book Promotions for the digital copy of this crime fiction. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

    DI Liam O'Reilly is shocked when a brick is thrown his window. Wrapped in paper is a message that sends shivers down his back.

    Ten years ago, O'Reilly was the reason Patrick Finney was sentenced to life behind bars for the savage murder of four women.

    Now Finney has escaped from a high-security prison and he's not content to stay on the run. No doubt the brick wrapped message was a warning ... he's coming and revenge will be sweet.

    When the hunter becomes the hunted the rules of the game have to change.

    As with all the books in this series, it is well-written with thrills and chills around every corner. The non-stop action is filled with twists and turns that don't seem to stop. The characters are solidly developed and come across as believable. The ending comes fast and furious. Although 5th in the series, this can easily be read as a stand alone, but I highly recommend reading in order.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculous ending
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 15, 2021
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I have never read a book with a more ludicrous ending. Would a father really allow his daughter to be murdered to catch a killer , or why would a person give up their life for the same reason. Too much for me.
