Summary
In the villages and on the mountains of County Tyrone, in the heartland of the Provisional IRA's most active Brigade, the golden rule is 'Hear nothing, see nothing, know nothing'.
To collaborate with British Intelligence is to invite an inescapable death sentence. But there is word on the mountain that inside the Brigade there is a 'tout', an informer. He will be identified, interrogated, tortured, then hooded and shot.
Gary Brennard, the MI5 field agent, and Parker, who runs the informer, have to protect their man at all costs: he is the critical asset to hold on to until the stakes are high enough... and if the innocent step into the crossfire, that's just bad luck.

Absolutely atrocious narration. Like a vicar in a dreary service. Will avoid that guy in future
Absolutely atrocious narration. Like a vicar in a mournful service. Will avoid that guy in future. Quite horrendous. Gave up after chapter 3; life’s far too short

Excellent addition to my library
What did you like most about The Journeyman Tailor?
A novel of the Northern Troubles of the 70's. An acquired taste perhaps but I thoroughly enjoyed this book by Gerald Seymour. The narrrator was excellent.

Marvellous
My first time with this author. Took the book purely on the basis of the summary provided on the Audible site and I am glad I did. No holds barred storyline delves into the murky world of undercover anti terrorist work. Well worth a read.

Grim
Grim but compelling. None of the characters are particularly likeable but you fear for them. Well plotted.
