Description
A powerful new Irish novel explores the brutal glory of armed conflict and the bitter tragedy of those on both sides who offer their lives to defend their country. Set in Northern Ireland, 1996, the story is inspired by the oldest war story of them all. Twenty-five years of conflict have finally come to an end with an uneasy ceasefire, but for those on the ground in the border country, the question remains: what exactly were they fighting for? When an IRA man's wife turns informer, he and his brother gather their old comrades for an assault on the local army base. But as tensions rise, a shocking turn of events forces the SAS to intervene. This gripping novel sheds light on the complexities of war and the human cost of conflict, offering a thought-provoking exploration of the brutal realities of armed struggle.
