New Island Books

Allen Foster returns with some of Ireland’s most infamous and lesser-known murders in history. From Bridget Cleary and Patrick Dunphy (the oldest man to be executed in Britain or Ireland), to the Sherlock Holmes-like investigation into the death of WWII veteran James McParland, the tragic case of Lily Dotie, and many more! Foster’s Book of Irish Murder is full of victims and monsters, heroic detectives and false leads, killers escaping justice and mysterious unsolved cases.

Hard Border traces the roots of a century-old, hotly contested border that, after Brexit, will be the only land frontier between the United Kingdom and the European Union.
