NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025, AN POST IRISH BOOK AWARDS

The heart-breaking account of a search for the truth behind the brutal killings that shocked a nation.

On 29 August 2016, devastating news hit the headlines that an entire family was found dead in a rural community. For Jacqueline Connolly, this was a deeply personal and life-shattering tragedy, as she discovered her sister Clodagh, along with her nephews Liam, Niall and Ryan, were killed by their husband and father Alan Hawe.

Here, Jacqueline discloses the circumstances leading up to these tragic events, including Hawe's manipulation and coercive control of her unsuspecting sister.

Her gripping account tells of her family's painful struggle to expose critical failures in the initial garda investigation, as they uncovered the terrible darkness behind Hawe's 'pillar-of-the-community' facade.

Jacqueline also reveals many of the shocking, unpublished findings of the recent Garda Serious Crime Review, details that challenge our understanding of domestic violence and family annihilators, while laying bare a mass murder - Ireland's largest murder-suicide - that was cold-bloodedly planned for a year in advance.

Deadly Silence is both the story of a sister's determination to find truth and justice, and an inspiring personal journey of healing from severe trauma and loss.©2025 Jacqueline Coll

Eleştirmen yorumları

Deadly Silence is a record of Clodagh's sister Jacqueline's attempts to 'uncover the truth' about what happened ... It is a deeply poignant account of innocent lives lost for no reason and then symbolically lost again by the meaning of the deaths being misunderstood ... Deadly Silence is a vital book
That it is so utterly compelling, even as she narrates some deeply distressing events, is a testament to her resilience and grace under the most catastrophic circumstances
As riveting as it is heartbreaking ... an important read

The sister/aunt & mother/grandmother of the murder victims Clodagh, Liam, Niall, and Ryan are inspirational in their determination to seek answers to why their loved ones were killed. Ireland’s long history of calling murdering, narcissistic, bullying, misogynistic & pathetic men ‘pillars of society’, ‘troubled’, etc after they have committed these crimes is hopefully never going to happen again. Priests, Gardaí, and other ‘respected’ members of society should all listen to this book as part of their training. Jacqueline & Mary, may you and your close family have some peace in your lives now. I will think of you all often.

Clodagh and her beautiful boy’s deaths should have been investigated properly from the start

I havnt read a book that has moved me like this - I have been really impacted by Jaqueline’s story. My eyes are opened to the failures of the state & where policy fails women and children at the hands of abusers. Jacqueline can be confident that she has done her sister & nephews memories’ justice. I wish her all the best in her personal struggles & the trauma that she carries with her.

Superb analysis of the investigative failures & heart wrenching read.
