    I read a few Ann Rule books back in the 90s and found them very good. The Catcher In The Rye is one hat divides opinion here - I was not enthused by it whereas others have been gushing about it. The center of gravity in this contribution is the Irish angle - have read a lot of the stuff Billy refers to. Sam Miller is a great writer - and I wonder if Billy read On The Brinks.

    BP: The Koran.

    Interesting someone gave me a copy of the Koran. I dipped into it but gave up so good luck with that Billy if you ever get round to reading it.
