Screwed / Eoin Colfer / 301 pages / Irish/Scottish Challenge

This is the second Daniel McEvoy book and it is almost as good as the first one.  Ex-bouncer, now nightclub owner, Daniel McEvoy, is once again given a seemingly impossible assignment by local mob kingpin Irish Mike Madden.  Joe's ties in Ireland where Madden's mother lives have kept Joe safe.  When she dies, all bets are off and Madden threatens Joe's associates to secure his co-operation.  Mr. Colfer's sense of humor and "head-spinning plot twists" make this a sure bet good read.
