In 2002 the Residential Institutions Redress Board was set up to award compensation to persons who were abused while resident in religious-run residential institutions. All hearings were conducted in private, and the awards were dependent on the victims signing a secrecy agreement. No perpetrator was sentenced to a punishment. Aideen, our protagonist, has decided not to sell her silence. A turning point comes when she learns that her niece needs an expensive operation, one that the state will not cover the cost of. Aideen must rethink her decision. Written by Anonymous See less
