The guest today is author Henry Hemming and on this podcast we will be discussing his book “4 Shots In The Night" a true story of espionage, murder and justice during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. It centres round the brutal killing on 26th May, 1986 of British agent Frank Hegarty who infiltrated PIRA and also involves Martin McGuinness, terrorist turned politician and the notorious IRA member and British agent Freddie Scappaticci who, over a decade after the murder, decided to talk to the media about what happened that night. This started a search for truth which revealed how a handful of British agents were able to infiltrate the Provisional IRA, at great personal cost. It is a period described by Henry as “... by a country mile, the least understood conflict in recent British history, as well as the bloodiest and longest.”
Henry's book choice on Desert Islands Dits is "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote. My choice is Henry's book "Four Shots In The Night".
