The Truth Commissioner
David Park's latest novel explores one solution of how Northern Ireland may come to terms with the suffering of the past.
The Truth Commissioner chronicles the Commission's first hearing, the case of Connor Walshe, a 15-year-old Irish Catholic boy who disappeared and whose fate has remained a mystery. Three men are called to testify: Francis Gilroy, a newly appointed government minister and former IRA leader; retired policeman James Fenton, who recruited Connor as an informer; and Danny, then an 18-year-old IRA volunteer, who had fled to America and built a new existence only to be called back to Belfast to testify 15 years later.
