Description
The Trigger Men by Martin Dillon delves into the dark world of Irish terrorism and counter-terrorism. Over three decades, Dillon has interviewed and investigated some of Ireland's most notorious killers.
These individuals, who learned their trade in fields and hillsides or were trained abroad, carried out a range of crimes, from sniper attacks to bombings. The book explores the personalities, motivations and bizarre crimes committed by these men, as well as those who controlled them.
Dillon's investigation reveals the ideology behind the cult of the gunman, the greed and hatred that drove assassins to commit horrific acts. With gripping detail, he examines the mindset of some of Ireland's most infamous killers, shedding light on their social and historical conditioning.
