A Debut Novel
by Drew McHolm
When the law fails, one man must decide how far justice can go — and whether he can live with the answer.

About the Novel
"Justice knows no borders. Neither does the truth."
Peter Kennedy stumbles onto something he was never meant to see — an IRA weapons cache hidden in the flat of a girl he's just met. In a single moment, his world tilts on its axis. Walk away and play it safe. Report it and put the girl and her family at risk. Or do the right thing and face the consequences alone.
Set against the backdrop of the IRA conflict in Northern Ireland and the bombing campaigns on the British mainland,Minister of Justice is a gripping debut thriller about moral courage, faith under pressure, redemption, and what it truly costs to choose justice.
