Maresa Fagan is an Irish journalist and author. Her book The Killing of Father Niall Molloy investigates one of Ireland's most notorious unsolved cases — the death of a Catholic priest found beaten in a bedroom of a country house in 1985, and the subsequent trial that lasted just four hours before the accused was acquitted. Fagan brings meticulous investigative journalism to a case that has haunted Ireland for decades, uncovering new evidence and asking difficult questions about power, privilege, and justice. Available as an audiobook and in print, the book is essential reading and listening for true crime enthusiasts and anyone interested in Irish history and the pursuit of justice.
