Shannon OвЂ™Shea had lost more than most, and every fiber of my being screamed at me to pull him from the depths of his despair. Instead, we were a syndicate crushed by grief. I wanted to hear laughter and Irish music. I wanted to see my brothers-in-arms dance and drink way too much. In the wake of the bloodiest war the Sons of Munster had seen in a long time, we were supposed to celebrate our victory and move on with our lives. Unshackled spares no one, and along the way, youвЂ™ll get everything from high-speed car chases, secret meetings in the dark, and the rawest hours of grief, to strong family ties, humor, and unconditional love.
