Abstract
and individual story to the question of the overall intelligence impact against the IRA and whether that was a crucial factor leading to peace. Regardless of whether readers agree with Agents of Influence’s overall view of the impact of intelligence on the IRA, the book is a useful contribution to the field. It provides a nuanced understanding of how UK intelligence agencies operated, contributes to the debate surrounding the role of intelligence during the Troubles and provides a wealth of new material, particularly that provided by former UK intelligence operators and self-confessed IRA agents.
