    Patrick Radden Keefe

    Author Patrick Radenkeef's book investigates the abduction and murder of Jean McConville in 1972, tracing the involvement of IRA paramilitaries Dolours Price and Gerry Adams through the lens of the Boston College oral history controversy. The narrative details how Adams utilized strategic denial to facilitate the Good Friday Agreement while former foot soldiers like Price felt alienated by the resulting power-sharing compromise that halted the push for unification. With Brexit reigniting physical border tensions, the account concludes that despite the end of the thirty-year Troubles, the unresolved nature of past crimes and renewed geopolitical friction suggest the current peace remains fragile.
