Death in the Burren
“In reality he was too taken aback, too physically tired also, to have any constructive thoughts on the on the matter. He simply pondered.
There was one thing he could confidently claim though. This had been the strangest week in his life. No question about it!
A curious pattern emerged as he reviewed the time since he rounded Black Head last Monday. Well, not exactly a pattern, but a remarkable stop/go sequence. Normality followed by sudden abnormality followed by another bout of normal...ity. Then a further surprise, and so on, but with matters getting progressively more serious.
He had driven down from Dublin last week absolutely at peace with the world only to miss death by inches at Black Head. Then, as anticipated, he had a very pleasant evening with Frank and Susan, but that had been spoiled by Hyland’s behaviour. Eventually he had met up with Patsy and sorted out details of his course. This had been followed by a wonderful evening in Ennis.MoreLess
