Cauldron of Conspiracy

When the youngest daughter of the Vice-President of the United States comes to Ireland for a summer course at the Kilkenny College of Art and Design, her visit interests a lot of people.
Asad Bin Shalwah, a Syrian refugee working in Dublin, whose daughter was killed in Syria, wants to deliver a message to the American president. His cousin, Jamal Oswam and his fellow members of an extreme resistance group in Syria, see it as an opportunity to strike back at the Americans.
Peter Devlin and Seanie O’Hara in Belfast also take a great interest in the girl's visit. As the last remaining members of the Free Ireland Brotherhood, they are anxious to find some way to have funds, frozen in a Boston bank by the U.S. president, released back to them so that they can resurrect their campaign.
Add a ruthless drug baron from Amsterdam and his siren of a Brazilian girlfriend, two hard bitten agents assigned to the protection of the girl and a Garda superintendent who ridicules the idea that anything could happen to her while in Ireland… and the pot begins to rapidly come to the boil.

But the girl is staying in Kilbracken, and this is Scobie Tierney’s neck of the woods. Nobody is better at putting the lid back on than the hard drinking, rule bending detective sergeant.
