Criminal Law
This work is a revised and expanded update to Criminal Law Cases and Materials (1992). All the relevant statues, case law and commentaries from academic authors have been retained. The re-written text of the previous edition encompasses both a thorough overview of criminal law and a practical guide to the application of those principles in the context of individual offences. The final chapter of the former work was found by practitioners to be of particular relevance. It consists of a set of sample charges covering the vast bulk of Irish criminal law with annotations from statutory materials.

Disavowing Asylum
Disavowing Asylum presents the for-profit Direct Provision asylum regime in the Republic of Ireland, describing and theorizing the remote asylum centres throughout the country as a disavowed regime of racialized incarceration, operated by private companies and hidden from public view. The authors combine a historical and geographical analysis of Direct Provision with a theoretical analysis of the disavowal of the system by state and society and with a visual autoethnography via one of the authors’ Asylum Archive and Direct Provision diary, constituting a first-person narrative of the experience of living in Direct Provision. This book argues that asylum seekers, far from being mere victims of racialization and of their experiences in Direct Provision, are active agents of change and resistance, and theorizes the Asylum Archive project as an archive of silenced lives that brings into public view the hidden experiences of asylum seekers in Ireland's Direct Provision regime.
Enda the Road
By many measures Enda Kenny was Fine Gael's most successful leader of all time, but his position as Taoiseach was thrown into turmoil in February 2017 by an explosive political scandal – one which threatened to collapse his government, and ultimately cost Kenny his job. In Enda the Road: Nine Days That Toppled a Taoiseach, Gavan Reilly offers an enthralling blow-by-blow account of the Maurice McCabe scandal: how a Garda whistleblower was targeted by a national smear campaign, and how the government's botched response led to a fatal loss of trust in its leader. Compiled through exhaustive research and interviews with dozens of key figures and witnesses, Enda the Road is the ultimate account of a nine-day political hurricane whirlwind that brought down a Taoiseach.
Gangster
Gangster is the critically acclaimed biography of John Gilligan, the biggest drugs trafficker to emerge from the Irish underworld. The book is an extraordinarily account of how a young Dubliner became a multi-millionaire criminal. It uses first-hand interviews with Gilligan, his thugs, friends, family, enemies, anti-drugs activists, members of the IRA and the police. It tells of violence, kidnapping, shootings, criminal espionage, drug dealing and how criminal gangs vied for power to control the Irish trade in drugs.Shocking, fascinating and frightening, Gangster also tells the story behind the murder of Veronica Guerin, the crime reporter. Fully updated and revised with new photographs.
Charades
The Morris Report, published in the summer of 2004, identified widespread and significant corruption and malpractice among members of the Garda Siochana in Co. Donegal. It was one of the most trenchant and unambiguous tribunal reports of modern times. Tribunal. In this book, written by her sister, her story is told. Hers was a classic case of a vulnerable young woman, first putting herself into self-glamorising situations, but later finding herself cynically and cruelly exploited by bullies. apparent information to the guards was anything other than bizarre. But the real scandal developed when Adrienne was then used as part of an elaborate scheme to win promotion for two guards, in particular, by the planting of fake and false evidence relating to IRA terrorism. This is not just one woman's story of weakness and exploitation. It is also a searing insight into a Garda culture that requires urgent remedial action.
