Items related to Trespass (Inspector Celcius Daly)
The abduction of a child entangles Celcius Daly in a forty-year-old quest for justice.
Inspector Celcius Daly is leading the search for a ten-year-old boy, abducted in broad daylight from the car park outside Armagh Courthouse. His investigation leads to a notorious group of travellers long suspected of smuggling and organised crime. Digging deeper, Daly discovers some harrowing truths about their past treatment and unearths a family secret linked to an unsolved crime during the Troubles – the disappearance of a young traveller woman and her baby.
Under investigation by Internal Affairs, hounded by Special Branch, ostracised by his colleagues, Daly realises just how much he has in common with the outcast travellers. But dare he risk becoming entangled in a vigilante vendetta? Just how far will this group of outsiders go to find their own justice?

About the Author:
Anthony J. Quinn was born in Northern Ireland's County Tyrone and studied English at Queen's University, Belfast. He works as a journalist and author. His first novel to appear in America, Disappeared, was published by Mysterious Press/Open Road last year.
Review:
“Daly’s personal troubles, unsettling details about his fellow officers and the victim’s family, and an enlightening look at the travelers and their wandering ways unfold in carefully wrought, often lyrical prose, always rich with foreboding. The ending is somewhat surprising and totally satisfying. Fans of Adrian McKinty and Stuart Neville, in particular as well as all readers who relish that Celtic edge, will not want to miss this one.”

“
- Irish Times
“Quinn’s exploration of the hidden war being waged over the purchase of property on the border is intriguing, as is the secretive culture of the Travellers, a nomadic group who survive by navigating ancient routes through the wilderness.”
- Publishers Weekly
“A major piece of work. Eerily tender, a wonderfully wrought classic that is a landmark in the fiction of Northern Ireland. . . . Line up the glittering prizes of mystery. This one is going to take ’em all. ”
- Ken Bruen, author of Rilke on Black
“
- Sunday Times Crime Club (U.K.)
“An outstanding, deeply satisfying and beautifully written police procedural.”
- Irish Independent

“
Quinn's prose has a quality of bleak poetry. Trespass is a bracing tale of a society ravaged by violence.
