The Dublin and Monaghan Bombings constitute the biggest unsolved murder case in the Irish State. They account for the single greatest loss of life in any one day of the so-called Troubles.

Thirty-one Irish people, together with a French and an Italian citizen, were murdered, and hundreds were maimed. After a quarter of a century the bereaved and injured consider themselves doubly wounded because of their treatment by the Irish State and its agents. They seek public accountability. They want to know the truth.

Here, the truth, the questions, and the victims' stories are presented, while subsequent investigations, political responses and media coverage are examined. The questions present far-reaching ramifications for the British and Irish states, with suspected involvement of British Military Intelligence in assisting loyalist paramilitaries to place no-warning bombs in the Republic of Ireland. This book's intention is to bring about a full public tribunal of inquiry, which the bereaved and wounded now demand.
