\u00a0<\/strong>Valberg Returns\u2026With The Backing Of Lee Child<\/strong><\/p>\n

Disciples of GOD<\/em> is the action-packed fourth book in the acclaimed Valberg series by Derry writer Desmond J. Doherty.<\/p>\n

Former Police Service of Northern Ireland detective Jon Valberg has a confession to make. He decides to create a recording of his innermost private thoughts at a time when he is distressed and disturbed. He starts this process in his apartment in Spain. And confess he does; until he is interrupted by the arrival of Matida Jawara, the adopted Angolan daughter of the deceased spree murderer and convicted child killer, Gerard O\u2019Driscoll. Valberg is still haunted by O\u2019Driscoll.<\/p>\n

Mati delivers her father\u2019s last will and testament to Valberg. It includes a request that he return to Derry upon certain conditions. Valberg cannot resist the intrigue. As he watches in horror at Prehen House the frightening video left by O\u2019Driscoll, the deranged acolytes of the feared assassin unleash a torrent of murder-suicides across the city. Disciples of GOD <\/em>is a return to blood and bullets, murder and mayhem, secret investigations, revelations, and opportunity \u2013 with an ending to die for.<\/p>\n

Lee Child \u2013 multi-million world-renowned best-selling author \u2013 is an avid fan of the cop from Derry. Child makes no bones about it \u2013 \u2018Doherty is a great writer and Valberg is a great character,\u2019 he enthused.<\/p>\n

Child said of Disciples of GOD<\/em>:- \u2018Buy this today and read it tonight.\u2019 And that\u2019s exactly what he did. Almost\u2026<\/p>\n

\u2018Well, he didn\u2019t have to buy a copy,\u2019 said author Desmond Doherty. \u2018We had met before so I sent him a review copy as a matter of professional courtesy. And he did read it in a night! He came back to me the next day with his glowing recommendation which was very considerate of him. I also sent him a copy of a short film I had developed with the backing of NI Screen and the Nerve Centre \u2013 ‘Don\u2019t be Afraid’ featuring Sergeant Linda Wilson, a key protagonist from the novels. Lee came straight back to me as well and said it was fantastic.\u00a0 What great support from a truly great writer who goes out of his way to encourage other authors whenever he can.\u2019<\/p>\n

Doherty continued: \u2018Wilson is one of my favourite characters in the Valberg series and a central and crucial thread for the development of the story which takes even more twists and turns in the next book due out in 2021. I hope the readers enjoy Disciples of GOD<\/em> as much as Lee Child!\u2019<\/p>\n
