In March 2017, Tina Satchwell vanished from her home in Youghal, County Cork. For six and a half years, her disappearance remained one of Ireland’s most haunting mysteries. Her husband Richard Satchwell claimed she had left with two suitcases and €26,000 in cash. Gardaí searched the house and found nothing. Journalists interviewed Richard, including one who sat unknowingly just feet from Tina’s hidden grave …This extraordinary book is the definitive account of the murder of Tina Satchwell, told by the journalist who helped expose the truth. It is a story of coercive control, deception and the quiet horror of a woman buried face down beneath her own stairs. Through exclusive interviews, Barry Cummins traces the long road to justice with forensic detail and remarkable insight – from the initial search and media appeals to the cold-case breakthrough that finally revealed Tina’s fate. Part true crime investigation, part personal reckoning, this is a powerful portrait of a woman whose voice was silenced, and of the systems that failed to hear her. It is also a tribute to the persistence of those who refused to let her be forgotten.
