Who Killed Honor Bright?

Meer over het boek

The narrative delves into the scandalous affair between William Butler Yeats and Lily O'Neill, whose murder was orchestrated by Garda Superintendent Leopold Dillon under the orders of Kevin O'Higgins, the Irish Minister of Justice. To maintain the integrity of the Irish Free State amidst political turmoil, a false narrative was constructed, branding Lily as a spy and a prostitute, while a sham trial exonerated her killer. This gripping tale highlights themes of betrayal, political manipulation, and the lengths to which officials went to protect their interests.
