Remember those people that destroyed the economy and then cruised off on their yachts? Well guess what? Someone is killing them.

Dublin is in the middle of a heat wave, and tempers are running high. The Celtic Tiger is well and truly dead, activists have taken over the headquarters of a failed bank, the trial of three unscrupulous property developers teeters on the brink of collapse, and in the midst of all this, along comes a mysterious organisation hell-bent on exacting bloody vengeance in the name of the little guy.

Paul Mulchrone doesn’t care about any of this; he has problems of his own. His newly established detective agency is about to be DOA. One of his partners won’t talk to him for very good reasons, and the other has seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth for no reason at all. Can he hold it together long enough to figure out what Bunny McGarry’s colourful past has to do with his present absence?

When the law and justice no longer mean the same thing, on which side will you stand?

The Day That Never Comes is the second book in Caimh McDonnell’s Dublin Trilogy, which melds fast-paced action with a distinctly Irish acerbic wit.

This is a great series of books with Bunny McGarry the stand out character and everyone else supporting him. In this novel Bunny has gone missing. That's the only reason I've left a star off - because I wanted more Bunny. Paul and Phil are like the son and his mate from Mrs Brown's Boys - a couple of irritating jokers who need to get their act together to be taken seriously. Next I'm going straight to the prequel 'Angels in the Moonlight' because that's all Bunny and I think it will set me up nicely for 'Last Orders'.

Sharp dialogue, hilarious slapstick, caustic wit (a kidnapped man describing himself as a "Terry Waite tribute act"),great story, entertaining characters, social observation......
It's not meant to be profound but it is intelligent. So, unless you're looking for something with more depth, I would definitely recommend this.

Later day Raymond Chandler meets The Marx Brothers... ... Ticks all boxes.

How can I begin to describe this book! There are seriously dark moments, seriously funny moments and seriously Bunny moments that leave you with aching ribs. Awesomely read by Morgan Jones who makes every character uniquely individual and brilliant witty writing by Caimh McDonnell. Now off to get my next fix of this highly addictive set of Bunny and the gang.

Indescribable in a truly Bunny way.
