On the latest episode of the LoveLaois Podcast, we feature an interview with a Laois man who has an incredible story.

Mountmellick native Gary Colton is the author behind a brand new thrilling book called ‘Dark Finds‘.

Set in Toronto in Canada, the book follows the story of a young detective called Eve Salah and her seasoned partner, Mitch, who are tracking a serial killer.

Known as ‘The Poet’, the serial killer has bludgeoned an Irish businessman to death in Toronto’s financial district.

So Gary joins the Podcast and gives us the fascinating story of how he went from doing security in a hostel in Canada to becoming a published author.

How his life took him from the boom and bust in Ireland at the end of the 2000s, to Toronto in Canada and back again to Mountmellick.

It is a story filled with highs and lows and shows to everyone that no matter how old you are or what point you are in your life – you can truly do anything if you set your mind to it.
