Description

Shergar, one of the most elegant and powerful racehorses in the history of the sport, vanished on a cold night, sparking an international sensation. The kidnapping of this renowned equine athlete has remained a mystery for years, with theories ranging from bad business deals to domestic terrorism.

The Irish Republican Army (IRA) have been accused of being at the center of the plot, amidst the turbulent times in Ireland. The kidnapping of Shergar was intricately linked to the political situation in the country, with the trail going cold as the situation sank deeper into tragedy.

This book delves into the complicated and fascinating disappearance of Shergar, examining the domestic situation in Ireland and the potential connection to the sport of kings during a time of turmoil.
