In 1983 an off-duty prison officer was shot by the IRA in cold blood on a Dublin street. Over 40 years later, no one has been convicted of his murder. In this book, his son outlines why justice must be done.
Brian Stack was the chief prison officer working on the IRA wing of Portlaoise Prison in 1983. He was also a fan of amateur boxing and had travelled to see a match in Dublin in March of that year. After the match, he was shot outside the venue by an IRA gunman, leaving him paralyzed and brain damaged.
Brian survived the attack but succumbed to his injuries within 18 months, leaving a wife and three young sons. Austin Stack was 14 when his father passed away, but he has never forgotten him, nor has he ever given up hope of bringing his murderers to justice. Over the years, he has held secret talks with Gerry Adams and members of the IRA, but to date no one has been convicted of the crime.
This book is an account of a son's ongoing quest for justice, and his determination to set the record straight.
