Anne Devlin suffered for 48 years to protect those involved in Robert Emmet's Rising of 1803, refusing to barter her principles for money or personal safety. Once revered by Patrick Pearse and Éamon de Valera, Anne now lies in a lonely grave in Glasnevin.

After years of research, Mícheál Ó Doibhilín introduces us to Anne's story, and pleads for justice for this woman to whom Ireland owes so much.
