Description
A priceless collection of diamonds and rubies known as The Irish Crown Jewels are at the center of one of the most mysterious and sensational robberies of the early 20th century. On the eve of King Edward's royal visit to Ireland in 1907, the Irish Crown Jewels were stolen from Dublin Castle, Britain's most impregnable Irish stronghold. The priceless gems, known as the regalia of the Order of St. Patrick, were a symbol of the unity between the British Crown and the loyal landed gentry in Ireland. THE QUEER CASE OF THE IRISH CROWN JEWELS tells the story of the theft, the investigation, the cover-up and scandal that ensued. It is a story of blackmail, sexual corruption in high places and murder in darkest Ireland. |
