Out of Stock
For over four decades the story of the evil that occurred at the Kincora Boys' Home has haunted our political and social terrain. Former BBC journalist Chris Moore has been working on the story since it first emerged in 1980, and what he has uncovered is a horrific catalogue of failed opportunities to put an end to the sadistic activities of the men who were running the home, in particular those of MI5 agent William McGrath.
Over the course of Moore's four-decade long investigations, in which he gained exclusive access to witnesses, secret documents and whistleblowers from the intelligence services, he discovered that not only were the boys in Kincora systematically abused, but that some were forced into a paedophile trafficking ring whose members included Lord Louis Mountbatten. Moore also exposed MI5's systematic attempts to cover up what was happening in the home and how it knew in the early 1970s that the boys in Kincora were being repeatedly abused but did nothing to help them. Kincora: Britain's Shame is a shocking exposé of how the British State failed to protect some of its most vulnerable citizens.
