Ordinary Decent Criminals

Set against the backdrop of turbulent Northern Ireland, this story explores the complex intersections of politics and personal relationships through the lives of Estrin Lancaster and Farrell O’Phelan. Both characters are drawn to chaos and danger, with a shared aversion to ordinary life and love, leading to an intense and perilous connection. From the author of We Need to Talk About Kevin, the narrative delves into themes of destruction and the fear of domesticity amidst a landscape scarred by violence.
