The Chain by Adrian McKinty had been recommended to me by a friend, and even though I've only ever read one other book by him, I knew it would be a good story. The main protagonist, Sean McKenna, is an estranged father who's on a manhunt with two friends of his, Dana and Benny. They're after the shooter of Sean's young daughter that was killed in an act of retribution for his partner, Cillian. From the first chapter you know that this is going to be an intense, visceral novel that will keep you turning pages until you reach the end. The narrator did an excellent job with her character names and accents which made it extremely easy to tell who was speaking at any given time.
There is a bit of a backstory to the book, but it's not essential to the plot. McKinty opens by explaining that Irish men have a reputation for being tough and hard drinking. The main character, Tom, feels like he has to live up to this reputation even though he doesn't drink alcohol. On one fateful night, Tom witnesses something terrible happen in a Dublin bar and is forced to help with the cleanup. This experience changes his perspective on alcohol, leading him down a path that eventually leads him into crime before he finally decides he wants out of this life and goes on the run.
