The following books are just a few that have helped enormously in researching this novel:

Fugitive Ireland: European Minority Nationalists and Irish Political Asylum, 1937–2008, by Daniel Leach, Four Courts Press.

Commando Extraordinary: Otto Skorzeny, by Charles Foley, Cassell Military Classics.

Rescuing Mussolini: Gran Sasso 1943, by Robert Forczyk, Osprey Publishing.

Haughey’s Millions: Charlie’s Money Trail, by Colm Keena, Gill & Macmillan.

JFK in Ireland: Four Days that Changed a President, by Ryan Tubridy, Collins.

News from a New Republic: Ireland in the 1950s, by Tom Garvin, Gill & Macmillan.

Finally, I must thank the late Cathal O’Shannon, whose documentary Ireland’s Nazis first planted the seeds of this story in my mind.
