A producer at the BBC and mother to a new baby, Tessa is at work in Belfast one day when the news of another raid comes on the air. As the news reporter requests the public's help in locating those responsible for the robbery, security footage reveals Tessa's sister, Marian, pulling a black ski mask over her face. Riveting, atmospheric, and exquisitely written, Northern Spy is at once a heart-pounding story of the contemporary IRA and a moving portrait of sister, motherhood, and, of life in a deeply divided society.
