It details his arrest for murdering Philomena Hanna, his refusal of a police informant deal, and an alleged cash bribe from a man later revealed to be future RUC chief Ronnie Flanagan. The book also exposes Adair’s role in planning the 1992 Sean Graham bookmakers massacre, his unit’s receipt of weapons from Ulster Resistance—possibly aided by British intelligence—and paints a disturbing portrait of collusion, coercion, and terror during the Troubles, all drawn from Adair’s own chilling testimony.
