On a lonely Belfast road, four British agents are killed by Irish terrorists--while a British army unit looks on. Declan Carberry, a weary Irish agent with a drinking problem and a failing marriage, takes up the case. Declan makes it his mission to discover who is behind the violence and terror. From the author of Judas Testament.
Deniel Eastern is a very knowledgeable author. The "Night of the Apocaypse" is one of the best books I have every read. I think it rates seven stars on the 1 to 5 scale. Once you start this book you'll not want to put it down. It's a fast paced page turner that not only keeps you guessing, it grabs you and won't leg go until the finish.
Not a Bad Story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This book combines a good old murder mystery with a bunch of Middle Eastern terrorists for a book long gunfight. This is a good book. It had it all, a great story, good characters, wonderful action and a quick pace. This is just a good old exciting book. The author peppers the book with plot twists that keep the reader on his toes. This author writes in a way that is tight and slick that keep you interested through out. This is a solid murder mystery. Just do not get used to any of the characters, because they do not last long. Ok, so the detective that is used is straight from central casting, but that book is not bad. The story comes together and you believe it. I would have liked a bit more depth on the locations and characters, but not a bad read.
A terrific read!

Wow! I was up until 5 AM finishing this novel. YOU will enjoy it as much as I did - don't let the length disenchant you. Great characters. Intricate plot. Superb dialogue. You can't ask for more!
A very depressing thriller
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Easterman's heros don't have long to live in this action yarn set in Ireland. Other than the primary protagonists, all other characters die during the narrative. And even the survivors end the saga by stating that they are waiting for the midnight door knock that will announce their demise. However, the conspiracy premise is quite clever, and with a little imagination, makes for a better than average read.
