Pay the Devil

At the end of the American Civil War, Confederate Colonel Clay Fitzgerald escapes to Ireland, where his uncle has left him an estate, only to find that Ireland is caught up in a civil war of its own. The struggle between the wealthy landlords and the impoverished tenant farmers is growing in intensity, and having just fought and lost a terrible war, Clay wants to avoid the coming conflict. But after witnessing the atrocities that the landowners visit upon the people, Clay is unable to stand by. Taking the guise of a legendary night-riding outlaw, he joins the fight against the landlords - and wages a rebellion of his own!

Great Read!

This was my first Jack Higgins and I will definitely be looking for more. The story kept me entertained and the narrator was top-notch.

Short but sweet

very short book but great story. nice to read the diversity of an author. miss sean Dillon though.

Historical adventures

While the story is a predictable the characters are rich and interesting. The performance is great and the southern twangs to the voice helps with the narrative.
