Summary
When an unknown middle aged man was spotted in the Kinahan Cartel uniform at David Byrne's funeral, it wasn’t a case of who’s who - but who’s he?
Standing alongside known criminals of the gang, wearing the same black and blue kit, this man, who had been invisible before, was now on the Gardaí's radar.
But who was this Mr Nobody?
In time, his defiance and stupidity would bring down the Kinahans’ plan to unleash a massacre on the first anniversary of the Regency.
And topple the gang’s top man in the UK.
This is the story of the Greenogue weapons seizure, and the extraordinary double life of a jobless trucker who lured his wife, brother and lover into his criminal orbit- Mr Nobody, Declan Brady.
