History Wraped As A Mystery

This is an exceptionally fine account of the recent sucessful peace process and the role played by author-Congressman Peter King. The novel has a thinly disguised Peter King-like character who is a congressman from Seaford, New York (King's home base) collaborating with Bill Clinton to solve the fratricidal war in Northern Ireland. Interspersed with this very fine history are mysterious murders which impact upon the congressman's chances of re-election. ----The dialogue which author King provides is top notch. You can almost hear the brogue as the main actors meet to discuss the cliff hanger of a peace negotiation. --The political dialogue is almost as good. The book is well worth reading. I suggest that author King use the historical material, in this mystery novel, as the foundation for a serious history of the recently successful detente in Ireland. King might also think of applying his many and obvious talents to the current Middle East crisis.
