Now, in Fallon's Wake, Eickhoff returns to the rich and turbulent country of his heritage to craft a tale that acknowledges Ireland's troubled history while offering hope for the future. This is the story of Tom Fallon, an ex-IRA assassin who has retired to a small cottage on Long Woman's Grave. His days are quiet, filled with regret over deeds past, until a visit from a soldier convinces him that he must return to the movement. This time the issue is drugs, and Fallon realizes he must help the IRA stop drug shipments into Ireland, if only to prove that the organization has the best interests of the country at heart.
