Unsung Hero

At last, the most controversial, talked-about book to deal with the troubles in Northern Ireland is out in paperback. Kevin Fulton's story is shocking and unique. No known spy has spent longer within the organisation or risen higher in its ranks than Kevin. In order to maintain his cover within one of the world's most feared terrorist groups, Fulton was forced to take part in some of its most heinous crimes, including making bombs that would kill and maim. So highly was he thought of by the IRA leaders that they made him a member of their feared internal police - ironically, his job now was to root out and kill informers. In 1994, Fulton was forced to flee Northern Ireland after one of his operations compromised his safety. He was abandoned by the security forces and now lives like a fugitive. He decided to fight back by doing what his military chiefs thought he would never be brave enough to do - go public with his story.

Since 1994, Kevin Fulton has been living as a fugitive, unable to return to Northern Ireland.
