Christmas 1864, newly hired as the personal secretary to the head of the IRA in New York, 20-year-old Eoin O’Donoghue offers his services to the head of Canada’s secret police. Almost three years to the day after Lincoln’s death, Thomas D’Arcy McGee, Irish revolutionary, poet, journalist, Father of Confederation, is shot in the head by Fenian separatists. So begins (and ends) the trajectory of what Eoin calls his “Judas informantcy.” Who will capture his allegiance–his employer, Deirdre Hopper (Stephens), daughter of the Fenian leader in Dublin, or his Canadian spy-master Gilbert McMicken, who regularly insists his protégé provide “less poetry and more police work”?
