The Making of a Detective: A Garda's Story of Investigating Some of Ireland's Most Notorious Crimes - Couverture souple
Synopsis
When he retired in 2018 Pat Marry had been instrumental in solving dozens of serious crimes, including many murders.
But as a newly qualified garda in 1985, Marry had no idea how to become a detective. He soon realised he would have to learn on the job - put himself forward and show that he had what it took.
Taking initiative, following up hunches (even far-fetched ones), obsessing about details, trying new investigative techniques, thinking laterally - these were essential. In addition, you had to be a bit of a psychologist.
The Making of a Detective follows Pat Marry's path from rookie to Detective Inspector through the stories of key cases he worked on and investigations he led.
It includes high profile cases like Rachel Calally's murder by her husband Joe O'Reilly. But there are also stories that have faded from public memory, such as the 1995 murder of Marilyn Rynn, which involved the first use of DNA evidence to solve a crime in Ireland. Or the 2001 murder of Mary Gough, a case solved mainly by scrutinizing her husband's internet use - then a new investigative tool.
The Making of a Detective is a unique and gripping insight into the work of a dedicated garda operating at the very top of his profession.
'An absolutely fascinating book ... Really interesting stories and insights' Sean O'Rourke, RTÉ Radio 1
'An absolute must-read . . . as page turning as a crime novel' Irish Examiner

À propos de l'auteur
After being turned away by An Garda Síochána at 17 for being too young, Pat Marry joined the force eight years later. He went on to investigate some of Ireland's most high profile cases, including the killings of Rachel O'Reilly and Garda Adrian Donohue. He retired in 2018 at the rank of Detective Inspector.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Walking out of the garda training colllege in Templemore in 1985, Pat Marry's burning desire was to be a detective, but he had no idea of how to become one. In time he realised that it was all about putting yourself forward and taking initiative, following up hunches (even when they seemed flimsy), being obsessive about detail, trying out new investigative techniques, being a bit of a psychologist and thinking laterally, honing your instincts. In over three decades in the force Marry was instrumental in solving dozens of serious cases, including many murders.In The Making of a Detective Pat Marry reveals the inside story of high profile investigations he led, such as the murders of Rachel O'Reilly and Garda Adrian Donohue. And he also recounts fascinating detail of cases that have faded from public memory, such as the 1990 murder of Marilyn Rynn, which involved the first use of DNA evidence to solve a crime in Ireland. Or the 2001 murder of Mary Gough by her husband Colin Whelan, a case that was resolved largely through a painstaking trawl through Whelan's internet use - something that was new at the time.The Making of a Detective is a unique and gripping insight into the work of a dedicated garda working at the very top of his profession.
