About Night Boat to Tangier
October 23, 2018. It’s late one night in the waiting room at the sketchy Spanish port of Algeciras. Two fading Irish gangsters, Maurice Hearne and Charlie Redmond, are waiting for the boat from Tangier, scanning the crowds who come and go across the Strait of Gibraltar. A lover has been lost, a daughter has gone missing, and their world has come asunder. Can it be put together again?
Night Boat To Tangier is a novel drenched in sex and death and narcotics, in sudden violence and old magic, but it is obsessed, above all, with the mysteries of love.
