The Bad Place

Stories from the Margins, Book 2

De: Shane Dunphy

Narrado por: Shane Dunphy

The house was like something out of a Jane Austen novel, but the truth of what lay in the shadows was more terrifying than any fictional imagining.

Shane Dunphy recalls the experience of his darkest nightmares: a young girl describing missing children as playthings at house parties, but no one was listening; a malevolent, threatening presence looming in the residence they called the Bad Place, and Shane was forced to flee.

And now, 20 years later, a mother pleads with him to find her son who vanished at age five.

Determined to redress his mistakes, Shane doggedly investigates and begins to uncover a vast international child-trafficking ring that goes to the very top of the establishment.

And behind it all there’s the Dark Man, a hideous exile from humanity who has decided Shane needs to be taught a final lesson. Recounting cases of historical child disappearances, unsolved abductions, collusion with the Catholic church and its culture of secrets, lies and cover up, Shane Dunphy builds a picture of a complex web of organised criminality.

And, in a powerful story of personal redemption, Shane attempts to confront his demons and bring the notorious ringleader to justice.

Mesmerizing storytelling by Shane Dunphy!

I first heard about Shane’s work through one of the scariest ghost stories I’d ever heard. I learned he had written other works- and quickly ordered all I could find. This story is even more frightening than the ghost story because it tells of human monsters all around us- this story is brilliantly written and performed by Mr Dunphy himself- for me making it more alive. I’m glad to know that good writing is in the service of the truth- even if the truth scares the wits out of me!

Thanks Redhanded Podcast for THIS recommendation!

I'd heard tell about the horror's in Ireland. I'm ashamed to say that I had NO clue! What a freaking nightmare!!!
Wonderfully written, AND told by the author, Shane Dunphy

Outstanding work,
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Such a sad tale with twists and turns galore!

I am a huge Shane fan, I've read all his books and last audible and this recent addition did not disappoint! As an Irish woman, it saddens me to know our history is steeped in such horrific abuse of the most venerable in our nation. Shane shines a bright light on this very problem. A nice history lesson "between the margins" to booth. Hurry up with the next book!
