BOOK SPOTLIGHT: The Other Side of Fear by Eoghan Egan

I’m very pleased to welcome the Red Dog Press Book Tour for The Other Side of Fear by Eoghan Egan to The Irresponsible Reader this morning! It’s driving me crazy that I couldn’t squeeze this into my schedule right now but I couldn’t let the opportunity to squawk about this book pass by. This has the makings of a scorcher, and you’re going to want to look into it.

Book Details:

Book Title: The Other Side of Fear by Eoghan Egan
Series: The Ganestown Trilogy, #2
Publisher: Red Dog Press
Release date: March 29, 2022

The Other Side of Fear

About the Book

Sharona Waters is determined to dig into loan shark Dessie Dolan’s business and see him brought to justice. But when a young woman she’s only briefly met goes missing, a much darker story emerges.

Pulled into the ruthless world of people trafficking – a world built on violent brutality and sudden death – Sharona finds herself caught between crime and conscience, pursued by powerful and ruthless criminals, and just one bad decision away from having her whole world crash down.

Sometimes, the only way forward is to risk everything, no matter the cost.

COVER REVEAL: The Other Side of Fear by Eoghan Egan

Welcome to The Irresponsible Reader’s part in the Cover Reveal for The Other Side of Fear by Eoghan Egan! I do this with a sigh of relief—unlike the last cover reveal I agreed to do for Red Dog, I saw the email with the details in my spam folder before the reveal date, and I’d hate to renege twice in a row. Also, this is a cool cover and I like sharing cool things with you. But before we get to the striking cover down below, why don’t we learn a bit about the book?

BOOK SPOTLIGHT: Hiding in Plain Sight by Eoghan Egan

I CANNOT believe that I didn’t schedule this to post this morning. It does no one any good in my drafts folder. Very sorry to Eoghan Egan and Love Books Tours for this.

Today we are celebrating the release of Hiding in Plain Sight by Eoghan Egan. The official launch is on the 11th of January in Ireland and you are cordially invited. As I don’t think I have any readers who could make it, we’ll just focus on the book itself with some information about the book and the author. You are (I assume) also cordially invited to purchase it anytime.

Book Title: Hiding in Plain Sight by Eoghan Egan

Book Blurb:

The stunning debut from Ireland’s hottest new crime writer

A vicious serial killer roams the Irish Midlands, with his sights set on the next victim.

A successful businessman has found the perfect recipe for getting away with murder.

No bodies, no evidence.

No evidence, no suspect.

High art and low morals collide when graduate Sharona Waters discovers a multi-million euro art scam in play. She delves in, unwittingly putting herself on a direct trajectory with danger as the killer accelerates his murder spree.

When Sharona gets drawn into the killer’s orbit, she peels away his public persona and exposes the psychopath underneath. Suddenly, the small town has no hiding place…
