Resumen del Editor

Ireland, the 1990s. Eight missing women. Did a serial killer prowl the vanishing triangle? And if so, were they ever caught?

Between 1993 and 1998, eight women went missing from an area around Dublin that became known as the ‘Vanishing Triangle’. Was there a link? Speculation abounded. There were whispers of a serial killer, responsible for some, if not all, of these cases. But nobody was ever brought to justice.

Twenty years later, the brutal murder of Jastine Valdez disturbs crime Novelist Claire McGowan into action. Reminded, like many in Ireland, of those previous missing women, McGowan brings her skills as a novelist to the real world, setting out to uncover the truth of the vanishing triangle. As she digs deeper, she finds something terrible lurking behind the idyllic image of rural Ireland and the 21st century success story of the ‘Celtic Tiger’. An incompetent police force, a traumatised nation and, a rank, murderous misogyny.

But are the disappearances linked? Are they linked with other murders? Was there, is there, a serial killer on the loose?

Not a fiction book but shocking

History of missing women in Ireland from author's research for a fiction book. It got confusing at times. So many names and so many missing. Really sad.

Wished it was longer. Absolutely superb

Love the detail and first hand account of life during the troubles and the specific cases of these missing women. Highly recommend!

The lost

This is a story not unfamiliar the World over. We did not think it could happen again, but it has… Texas a state in the US has limited abortions to those that do not have a heart beat! This means before the woman knows she is pregnant! Pray for the women of Afghanistan as they bravely face the Taliban. My heart breaks that these stories are not unique. They should be and somewhere there should be a memorial to all the missing around the world. Thank you for bringing Ireland’s missing to life.

Amazing story educating about irelands history

Bought the audio book after listening to they red handed author interview with Claire McGowan. Great information on Ireland’s history and the different factors that affected and still effect women to this day. Thank you providing this resource and for bringing light to these missing women.

hmmm

wouldve liked more about the vanishings rather than feminist dogma. its a baffling series of events in a place where there was war in the streets.
