Liberty Boy (The Liberty Series Book 1)
by David Gaughran
Genre: Literary Fiction | Literature & Fiction | Historical Fiction
“It was the kind of morning that made him wonder if God hated the Irish… ”
Dublin has been on a knife-edge since the failed rebellion in July, and Jimmy O’Flaherty suspects a newcomer to The Liberties – Kitty Doyle – is mixed up in it. She accuses him of spying for the English, and he thinks she’s a reckless troublemaker.
All Jimmy wants is to earn enough coin to buy passage to America. But when the English turn his trading patch into a gallows, Jimmy finds himself drawn into the very conflict he’s spent his whole life avoiding.
“Liberty Boy is a riveting tale of an overlooked rebellion, told from the perspective of the streets, with gifted dialogue that is more heard than read and unexpected twists that leave you breathless from first page to last.” – Cindy Vallar, Historical Novel Society Review.
