Shadow Dancer

Thriller. A captured IRA terrorist is sent back to Belfast as an MI5 informant, but when suspicions are aroused she finds both herself and her family in grave danger.

Belfast, 1980s: IRA volunteer Colette McVeigh is caught in an operation by British secret services and faces little option but to become an informer or she will never see her son again. Reluctantly attending secret meetings with her handler, she begins passing secret information across about her own brothers, both volunteers in the IRA. And Colette is being watched by her brother Gerry. If she makes one false move, they will kill her. If it isn't the British who take her away from her son, it could be her own family.
