Phoenix: Policing the Shadows

A detailed account of covert policing, intelligence networks and counter-terrorism during the Troubles in Northern Ireland.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine love of history, politics and books that explored the forces operating behind major events. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each book now looking for a new home where it can continue to be read and appreciated.

Written by Jack Holland and Susan Phoenix, Phoenix: Policing the Shadows examines the concealed world of intelligence gathering, informers, counter-terrorism and covert policing during the Troubles.

The book looks at the difficult decisions taken away from public view and the lasting consequences those operations had for individuals, communities and the wider political landscape of Northern Ireland.

A substantial read for those interested in Irish history, intelligence operations, policing, security and the hidden workings of political conflict.

Arya's Approval

A serious look at the hidden side of the Troubles, where intelligence, informers and policing decisions often operated far from public view. It shows how those choices could shape lives and politics long after the immediate operation had ended.

★★★★★ 5 Paws from Arya
