THE SCHOLAR by Dervla McTiernan


When a student at Galway University is found dead from a hit-and-run accident on the college grounds, and Detective Cormac Reilly's girlfriend, scientist Dr. Emma Sweeney discovers the body, you know you are in for a serious ride. The victim has the ID card in her pocket of one Carline Darcey, granddaughter of the owner of one of the most powerful pharmaceutical companies. Is it her? Everyone must tread carefully as this case will be in the media spotlight. Twists and turns abound in The Scholar by Dervla McTiernan.


Heads Up- approx. 25 f-bombs, ample use of Christ, one suspect is thought to be gay since she doesn't have a boyfriend (she's not), and Sweeney and Reilly live together (there's no scenes).
