It exposed his status as an informant and led to protests, campaigns, far-reaching changes to British law, a historic ruling from a senior judicial body, a ground-breaking police investigation, and bitter condemnation from a US Congressional commission. And there have been persistent rumors that one of the country's most senior politicians, the Sinn Fein leader Martin McGuinness, might have been personally involved in this particular murder. Relying on archival research, interviews, and the findings of a new complete police investigation, Four Shots in the Night tells a riveting story not just of this murder but of his role in the decades-long conflict that defined him--the Troubles. And the questions it tackles are even larger: how did the Troubles really come to an end? Was it a feat of diplomatic negotiation, as we've been told--or did spies play the decisive role? And how far can, or should, a spy go, for the good of his country? Four Shots in the Night is a page-turner that will make you think. 610 20 $a Irish Republican Army $x Trials, litigation, etc. $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Homicide investigation $z Northern Ireland $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Assassination $z Northern Ireland $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Espionage $z England $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Spies $z England $x Death $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Informers $z Northern Ireland $x Death $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Informers $z England $x Death $v Case studies. 650 6 $a Homicide $0 (CaQQLa)201-0376950 $x EnqueÌtes $0 (CaQQLa)201-0078064 $z Irlande du Nord $0 (CaQQLa)201-0482686 $v EÌtudes de cas. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0376950 650 6 $a Assassinat $0 (CaQQLa)201-0376950 $z Irlande du Nord $0 (CaQQLa)201-0482686 $v EÌtudes de cas. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0376950 650 6 $a Espionnage $0 (CaQQLa)201-0376950 $z Angleterre $0 (CaQQLa)201-0476579 $v EÌtudes de cas. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0376950 651 0 $a Northern Ireland $x Politics and government $y 1968-1998. 651 0 $a Northern Ireland $x History $y 1968-1998. 651 0 $a Northern Ireland $x History $z England $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a England $x History $z Northern Ireland $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Northern Ireland $x History. 651 6 $a Irlande du Nord $x Histoire. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0106458 651 6 $a Irlande du Nord $x Politique et gouvernement $y 1968-1998. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0249955 651 6 $a Irlande du Nord $x Histoire $y 1968-1998. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0106455 655 7 $a True crime stories. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a ReÌcits criminels. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000001265 655 7 $a EÌtudes de cas. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000001726 941 $a 2 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240604014741.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240604014451.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=942D780E223B11EF96E545AA58ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
