The Murder of Dr Muldoon by Ken Boyle
Fr Edward Ryans and his housekeeper abandon a baby girl on the doorstep of a house near the Black Church in Dublin in February 1923. Following the shooting of Dr Paddy Muldoon, Ryans is suspected of his killing and here the authors reveal how far senior figures in the Church, State and IRA were willing to go to cover up a scandal.
Ken Boyle is from Dublin, and his father's family was from the Ballinamore area of Leitrim. Ken worked in the financial sector in both Ireland and England. Since his retirement he has had the time to pursue a lifelong interest in recent Irish history. Ken's grandfather was Dr Muldoon's cousin. This is his first book.
