In January 1980, a secret review quietly rewired Britain’s war in Northern Ireland. Commissioned by the Chief Constable of the RUC and led by future MI5 Director General Sir Patrick Walker, it placed intelligence above the law - and changed everything.

What followed was a vast, covert agent-running machine that penetrated the Provisional IRA at unprecedented depth. Thousands of informers were recruited and handled outside any legal framework, authorised to lie, collude, and kill. Publicly, ministers spoke of the rule of law. Privately, the State crossed its own red lines.

Supporters claim Walker’s revolution saved lives and forced the IRA towards politics, helping pave the way to the Good Friday Agreement. Critics argue it licensed murder, subverted justice, and corrupted policing beyond repair. As one damning note to Tony Blair put it: ‘The State is assassinating people.’

Primed with new and important revelations, this meticulously researched book is the inside story of the decades-long struggle to expose that truth - an attritional battle between detectives, lawyers, and a powerful ‘Securocracy’ determined to protect its secrets. From shoot-to-kill and collusion inquiries to Operation Kenova and the Stakeknife scandal, it reveals how the State has so doggedly fought to control the narrative, silence scrutiny, and preserve its legacy, whatever the cost.©2026 John Ware Europe Great Britain Military True Crime Hukuk

nothing as bad as listening to a book about Northern Ireland and the narrator pronouncing names and places completely wrong

I remember many of these events - indeed, I lived and worked in Belfast during some of the periods when these events took place.

A very different veneer was put on news and reporting generally but I do recall the huge unease and anger the Dirty War broadcast caused.

This is a fabulous book, well-written and well-narrated (apart from the occasional mispronounciation).

Recommended.

Important part of the story and left wondering who you were on about. Pat's surname is Finucane. Fin...u..cane. Not whatever the narrator was saying.

Do your research in names

No research whatsoever by this author only a few online searches of articles and books by proper journalists, a complete rip off of the work of people like Anthony Mcintyre , avoid , every chapter here is available free online

Complete waste of money
