In the heart of East Belfast, 1983, the Troubles cast a long shadow over Mountroyal RUC Station. As the sequel to the gripping Mountroyal, this novel plunges readers back into a world where danger lurks around every corner and loyalties are constantly tested.
Follow Superintendent George Sewell and his eclectic crew of officers as they navigate the treacherous waters of policing during one of Northern Ireland’s most tumultuous periods. From terrorist explosions to corruption within their own ranks, the men and women of A Section face challenges that will push them to their limits.
As tensions simmer in the streets, a diverse cast of characters emerges: the contemplative Inspector Derek Grant, the eager new Sergeant Tony Speers, the reluctant genius Harold “Tweety Pie” Sweetlove, and the contrasting beauties Stephanie “Heavenly” Gates and Shelley McCann. Together, they must confront not only the ever-present threat of violence but also their own fears and weaknesses.
With a rich tapestry of storylines - including a joint IRA and UVF drug operation, a major arson attack, and the discovery of a child with an extraordinary talent – Mountroyal Pearls offers a compelling blend of crime drama, personal struggle, and unexpected moments of levity.
In a city divided, will the bonds of camaraderie at Mountroyal RUC Station be enough to weather the storm? Dive into this gripping tale of duty, danger, and the human spirit in a time when death waits silently in the wings, ready to take centre stage.
