KILLING THATCHER is the gripping account of how the IRA came astonishingly close to killing Margaret Thatcher and to wiping out the British Cabinet – an extraordinary assassination attempt linked to the Northern Ireland Troubles and the most daring conspiracy against the Crown since the Gunpowder Plot.

In this fascinating and compelling book, veteran journalist Rory Carroll retraces the road to the infamous Brighton bombing in 1984 – an incident that shaped the political landscape in the UK for decades to come. He begins with the infamous execution of Lord Mountbatten in 1979 – for which the IRA took full responsibility – before tracing the rise of Margaret Thatcher, her response to the ‘Troubles’ in Ireland and the chain of events that culminated in the hunger strikes of 1981 and the death of 10 republican prisoners, including Bobby Sands. From that moment on Thatcher became an enemy of the IRA – and the organisation swore revenge.

Opening with a brilliantly-paced prologue that introduces bomber Patrick Magee in the build up to the incident, Carroll sets out to deftly explore the intrigue before and after the assassination attempt – with the story spanning three continents, from pubs and palaces, safe houses and interrogation rooms, hotels and barracks. On one side, an elite IRA team aided by a renegade priest, US-raised funds and Libya’s Qaddafi and on the other, intelligence officers, police detectives, informers and bomb disposal officers. An exciting narrative that blends true crime with political history, this is the first major book to investigate the Brighton attack.

just works perfectly out of the box
Style: 1-Pack, Size: 6 Feet
Plugged this in between my PC and monitor and it worked right away with zero setup required. Picture quality is great and I've had no issues with flickering or signal drops after weeks of use. The 6 foot length is perfect for a typical desk setup and it feels a lot sturdier than the random cheap cables I've used before. Honestly what more could you want from a cable at this price point.

Very comfortable to use
Style: Combo, Color: Rose, Size: 1 Pack
This is a nice keyboard/mouse for the money. I ordered it in pink because it will help me to keep it separate from others I have. I have a tendency to forget which mouse goes with which keyboard. The color makes all the difference. In addition this works well and has a light up indicator for the caps lock which my older one does not. That was annoying to look up and see that everything was in caps by mistake. Good product.

Works great, very happy with it!
Style: Combo, Color: Black, Size: 1 Pack
I really like this keyboard and mouse combo! It arrived in perfect condition and works exactly like it should. Setting it up was incredibly easy- you just plug in the little USB receiver and you are ready to go. ​The keyboard is comfortable to type on, the mouse is smooth, and the wireless connection has been flawless. If you need a reliable, no-nonsense setup for daily use, this is a great choice. Highly recommend!
