Interesting Facts

• One of his sisters, Colleen, was an art broker based in Florence, and another sister’s husband was retired army.
• Roarke knew him in Dublin - he wasn’t a friend but a former colleague. He was a decent B and E man and they had a few enterprises in common over the years.
• Roarke said he’d never be part of murder or tormenting women and children. The only time he’d seen him violent was when somebody slapped a bar girl. Liam stood, lifted his chair, and slammed it into the idiot’s face, breaking several teeth. Then he hauled the man up and ordered him to apologize. He said no one strikes a woman when Liam Donnelly’s about.
• The only weapon he ever carried was a pocket knife.
• He met his wife as William O’Donnell in New York, twelve years ago and retired after their first child was born, nearly eleven years ago. He told his wife about his old identity and his prison time, and she married him anyway, but they hadn’t told the children.
