THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE TWICE-WINNER OF THE COSTA BOOK OF THE YEAR 'Powerful.' RODDY DOYLE 'Tender and potent.' COLUM McCANN Following the end of the First World War, Eneas McNulty joins the British-led Royal Irish Constabulary. With all those around him becoming soldiers of a different kind, however, it proves to be the defining decision of his life when, having witnessed the murder of a fellow RIC policeman, he is wrongly accused of identifying the executioners. With a sentence of death passed over him, Eneas is forced to flee Sligo, his friends, family and beloved girl, Viv, but what if he can't escape the pull of home? Beautifully written, The Whereabouts of Eneas McNulty tells the secret history of a lost man.
