About the Original Book:
Say Nothing deftly weaves the story of Jean McConville, one of the many people who disappeared in Northern Ireland during the Troubles, with those of top IRA volunteers like Dolours Price, Brendan Hughes, and Gerry Adams to narrate a scrupulously researched, chilling tale of violence, subterfuge, and tragedy. Covering the expansive and brutal history of the Northern Ireland conflict from the 1960s to the present times, this book will not only inform, thrill, and terrify you but will also leave you questioning your own notions of violence and patriotism.
