The Ghosts of GalwayKen Bruen is a singular voice in crime fiction "with his ear for lilting Irish prose and his taste for the kind of gallows humor heard only at the foot of the gallows" (New York Times Book Review). In The Ghosts of Galway, he brings those elegiac talents to bear on a case involving a famously blasphemous red book and Bruen's equally profane antihero Jack Taylor.

Ken Bruen is a singular voice in crime fiction "with his ear for lilting Irish prose and his taste for the kind of gallows humor heard only at the foot of the gallows" (New York Times Book Review). In The Ghosts of Galway, he brings those elegiac talents to bear on a case involving a famously blasphemous red book and Bruen's equally profane antihero Jack Taylor. As well-versed in politics, pop culture, and crime fiction as he is ill-fated in life, Jack Taylor is recovering from a mistaken medical diagnosis and a failed suicide attempt. In need of money, and with former cop on his resume, Jack has been hired as a night-shift security guard. But his Ukrainian boss has Jack in mind for a bit of off-the-books work. He wants Jack to find what some claim to be the first true book of heresy, The Red Book, currently in the possession of a rogue priest who is hiding out in Galway after fleeing a position at the Vatican. Despite Jack's distaste for priests of any stripe, the money is too good to turn down. Em, the many-faced woman who has had a vise on Jack's heart and mind for the past two years, reappears and turns out to be entangled with the story of The Red Book, too, leading Jack down ever more mysterious and lethal pathways. It seems all sides are angling for a piece of Jack Taylor, but as The Ghosts of Galway twists toward a violent end, he is increasingly plagued by ghosts--by the disposable and disposed of in a city filled with as much darkness as the deepest corners of Jack's own mind.Binding Type: Hardcover

Nice Sleeping Partner
Color: Grey
This is a fantastic body pillow. It comes with the cover and is relatively cooler than the bamboo versions. I have slept with this pillow and I am not disappointed with it, unlike my partner on the other side.

Perfect size even tho I wanted hard/firm. This soft pillow is acceptable.
Color: Grey
I didn’t read every thing properly but even though I got the wrong product ( soft ) it still is not bad. It works for my intended use (between legs ) even though it’s soft I’m still using it for now because after fluffing it out and cramming it in two regular pillow cases it seems to keep a decent thickness to it JUST. In fairness I don’t know if it would get smaller in just one pillow case. But because I’m dumb I will use it for now and I still like it. I can’t comment on the cooling part because I use it under a blanket. The cooling thing only works with low thread count material and if it’s exposed to air. I have neither sorry. We all know the “ cooling” thing is a gimmick any ways. But with the right material and air some things do cool better than others at the same time. Hope this helps lol

wife loves it as a pregnancy pillow
Color: Grey
For my wife's first pregnancy we got a ton of really bad recommendations for pregnancy pillows that ended up being basically useless -- ones with small beads inside that moved away from where she needed it, weird wedge ones that would just fall out of place immediately, the question mark one that was just uncomfortable.
all she really needed was something like this. large, firm enough, and doesn't just shift around a bunch. her sleep quality during the second pregnancy third trimester has really improved since we got it.
