Plugged marks a major departure in both subject matter and tone for author Eoin Colfer. Known mostly for his bestselling Artemis Fowl series of children’s books, here Colfer turns his gaze towards a strictly adult audience. Plugged is the story of Daniel McEvoy (Dan to his friends), an Irishman in New Jersey who works as a bouncer at a seedy strip club. When one of the club’s hostesses is murdered, a bizarre chain of events is set into motion that sees Dan stepping outside the law into a world of crime, deception, violence… and black-market hair transplant ops.
