This was a hard book to read, both about the violence/fear that women have to deal with and how inadequate the justice system is in dealing with it/protecting men, short sentences, being released to re-offend.. There was a lot to read and some of it was repetitive. It was interesting to learn more about Ireland and the culture there. A small country that was considered both safe and dangerous, where it often was dark in the mid afternoon. Women being blamed for what men did to them. This is about five unsolved cases of women who were still missing in the mid to late 90's and it's connection to both earlier cases and to more current ones
