Celtic Enigma

It is an important football game that first brings together Seamus Dowling and Shane McCabe, two fiercely patriotic men from either side of Ireland's north-side divide. The friendship takes firm root in the soil of their beloved country, but in the next three decades of Ireland's most horrific political and sectarian violence, it is to be sorely tested. Set against a colourful backdrop of international locations, Celtic Enigma is a passionate political and family saga that explores the nature of the Irish psyche, and raises enduring questions about Ireland's links with her proud but bloody past.
