The pulsating two-month trial gripped the nation with extraordinary revelations of her plot to kill: allegations of greed; the web search to find a hitman; the manufacture of lethal ricin poison - and its subsequent discovery in Eid's cell; the kiss that stunned the courtroom...

This book contains all the intimate details of this sensational landmark trial - but it also goes much further. The author's local contacts in Ennis and her knowledge of the case since the beginning give her a unique insight into this story. Lying Eyes also reveals personal information about Ms Collins, including her background, upbringing and lifestyle, and how she came to be caught up in such an unimaginable tale.

With exclusive access to the email correspondence between lyingeyes and hire_hitman, and Collins's letters to the DPP, Emer Connolly reveals the lengths to which Sharon Collins was prepared to go to get her hands on her partner's money.
