Publisher's Summary
The house was like something out of a Jane Austen novel, but the truth of what lay in the shadows was more terrifying than any fictional imagining.
Shane Dunphy recalls the experience of his darkest nightmares: a young girl describing missing children as playthings at house parties, but no one was listening; a malevolent, threatening presence looming in the residence they called the Bad Place, and Shane was forced to flee.
And now, 20 years later, a mother pleads with him to find her son who vanished at age five.
Determined to redress his mistakes, Shane doggedly investigates and begins to uncover a vast international child-trafficking ring that goes to the very top of the establishment.
And behind it all there’s the Dark Man, a hideous exile from humanity who has decided Shane needs to be taught a final lesson. Recounting cases of historical child disappearances, unsolved abductions, collusion with the Catholic church and its culture of secrets, lies and cover up, Shane Dunphy builds a picture of a complex web of organised criminality.
And, in a powerful story of personal redemption, Shane attempts to confront his demons and bring the notorious ringleader to justice.

Another riveting and entertaining true tale from Shane Dunphy
As someone who has read Dunphy’s entire catalogue, I can honestly say that I can’t decide whether I prefer his fiction or non-fiction - both are so readable and entertaining. I never listen to audiobooks - I’m a big reader, but hearing that both Dunphy’s “Margins” books were only available on audible, I had to sign up just to get in on the action, and I wasn’t disappointed. Dunphy’s material can be confronting, but his voice is so mesmerising that he manages to make the experience of listening to his material at once relaxing and stimulating. I highly recommend listening in the bath, during a leisurely walk, or just before bed. Can’t wait to see what Dunphy has in store for us next! Will be re-listening to both “Stories From the Margins” books, as well as re-visiting “The Boy They Tried To Hide” as read by Dunphy himself! Highly recommended to anyone who likes true crime, an Irish accent, or even a bit of acoustic guitar, lol.
