The Insurgents
Lucy Thurber
The Troubles raging through Northern Ireland cost sixteen-year-old Colleen half her family, and she sees only one way to give her loss meaning: join the bloody fight for Irish independence from Britain.
It seems so simple, but the IRA‘s reception isn‘t what Colleen expects and her older sister Brigid will do anything to stop her from making the same mistake as their father.
How far will she go to make her path clear again?
How far will Ireland go?
And Britain?
And what more will it cost?
