<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Discover how Dr. O'Reilly began his medical career in the tenements of Dublin in Patrick Taylor's <i>New York Times</i> bestselling series.</b> <p/>Fans of Taylor's bestselling Irish Country novels know Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly as the irascible senior partner of a general practice in the colourful Irish village of Ballybucklebo. Newly married to his long-lost sweetheart, he's ready to settle into domestic bliss, but there's always something requiring his attention, be it a riding accident, a difficult patient with a worrisome heart condition, a spot of grouse-hunting, or even some tricky shenanigans at the local dog races. <p/>The everyday complications of village life are very different from the challenges Fingal faced nearly thirty years earlier, when, fresh out of medical school, the young Dr. O'Reilly accepts a post at the Aungier Street Dispensary, tending to the impoverished denizens of Dublin's tenement slums. Yet even as he tries to make a difference, Fingal's tireless devotion to his patients may cost him his own true love. . . . <p/>Shifting back and forth between the present and the past, Patrick Taylor's captivating <i>Fingal O'Reilly</i> brings to life both the green young man O'Reilly once was and the canny village doctor readers have come to know and admire.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"The novel is charming, full of Irish wit and wisdom and, of course, all the village characters we've come to love.
