Publisher's Synopsis
Peter Fitzgerald in his book FLAIL, has witten a kind of blended adult fairy tale. It is imbued with historical revisionism,
fantasy and supernatural elements, and magic realism, all of which coalesce in a mini epic
mystery thriller. It is also a compelling "road" story of family, love and loss, and
redemption, which are sometimes accompanied by some riffs of Bible black humour.
While FLAIL's reluctant hero initially appears to have possibly played a little too much
Rugby without a crash helmet, his grit and bravery, his love of family, and his inherited
gift of arcane prescience, cannot be easily dismissed.
This is a book that will stretch your imagination.
