Call down the Hawk

The past has a way of catching up with all men and in April 1995 it explodes back into Harry Ballantine's life, twenty years after he thought it had gone forever. Three men break into his home and take his wife, Freya as a hostage. They have an offer for their old IRA comrade - the sort of offer that cannot be refused if his love and he are to survive. They want him to commit a foul act of murder - one that has the potential to fatally derail the burgeoning Irish peace process and send the island of Ireland spiralling into a new cycle of violence.

About the Author
Maurice Nicholson was born on Ireland's South coast in 1952. Educated at Clongowes Wood College and University College Dublin, he has worked for most of his life as a veterinarian in Ireland, the United Kingdom and in Arabia. His work in the Middle East brought him into contact with falcons and the sport of falconry which have become his abiding passions. It also introduced him to the arid and mountainous regions of the Arabian Peninsula and further fuelled his love for wild places, wherever in the world they may be. "Call down the Hawk" is his first novel.
