A really good narrative.' Noreen Hegarty 'Excellent' James Downey Irish Independent 'Can't wait to read The Price of Power by Pat Leahy. His last [book] Showtime was the best book about Irish politics in years.' Dara O Briain When Fine Gael and Labour swept into government in February 2011 they knew they were facing the greatest crisis in the history of the state. What confronted them was beyond their direst imaginings. Pat Leahy's The Price of Power is the riveting inside story of how they have led - and misled - Ireland. The Price of Power tells the story of trying to govern a country on the verge of ruin - the favours the deals the policy compromises and previously unthinkable choices that had to be made. It is a gripping tale of high drama (and high dudgeon) of betrayal backstabbing and disillusionment of those who rose to the challenge and those who withered under the strain. If there's one writer who can get the inside story on what's really going on at the higest levels in Irish poltiics it's leading political journalist Pat Leahy. His account of Fianna F il in government Showtime is the considered the go-to book for anyone who wants to understand the disastrous politics led Ireland into economic meltdown. Now with the same mix of unrivalled inside information astute analysis and exciting writing he lifts the lid on the coalition that is supposed to get us out of the fix.
