A party once synonymous with a paramilitary campaign is on the brink of taking real power through purely democratic means.

She will look at the key individuals and moments that put the party on its present course, and she explores tensions within the party and the wider republican movement.Packed with revelatory details, The Long Game is a groundbreaking telling of contemporary Ireland's biggest and most elusive political story.
