A really interesting and engaging book on the IRA plot to assassinate Margaret Thatcher and her government in 1984. I found it to be extremely well researched and pretty balanced through the use of lots of primary sources on both sides. A sad but intriguing event in history that I’m learning more about.

I enjoyed the info, but too much time and energy was spent making it a narrative akin to fiction, which just felt silly considering it is well known what happened

Beautifully written look at Thatcherism and the IRA. This book had less of a halo around the IRA compared to other books I've read on the topic
