Every day we read about brutal, senseless crimes. We shudder in horror at the details. We move on. The families of the victims do not have that luxury. Shattered tells their stories of living with the aftermath of losing a loved one to violence & rebuilding broken lives. Families feel isolated & ignored in a system often more concerned with the rights of the perpetrator than of the victims or their families. From the harrowing details of the crimes themselves, Shattered examines the often-overlooked aspects of how families are treated by the system & what changes need to be introduced. It examines the law, Irish society & the prison system & analyses the argument that Ireland is becoming a more dangerous place. Shattered is a story of loss, heartbreak, anguish & frustration
- but also, ultimately, the hope & resilience of the human spirit.

Irene Spencer grew up in a fundamentalist, polygamous Mormon village in Arizona. The thirteenth of thirty-one children, she grew up in abject poverty & isolation, & was taught that she should never question the church leaders. Her mother, unable to cope, left her children & three 'sister-wives' with her abusive husb&. Desperate to escape her violent home, & believing she had no choice but to live by 'the Principle', at sixteen Irene found herself in a plural marriage, sharing her husband with her half sister. When the government raided her village, she fled with Verlan, numerous other wives & countless children to a ranch in Mexico where Verlan's brother, a self-proclaimed prophet, was attempting to found a new Mormon colony. The strains of husb&-sharing with -- ultimately -- nine other wives were unbelievably hard. Irene's story provides a fascinating insight into polygamous marriage -- the squabbles & the jealousy, & the agony of watching your husband choose other wives over you. They lived with divided loyalties in unremitting deprivation -- struggling to maintain so many households & to bring up 56 children. Irene eventually escaped with her children & made the bold step into the outside world & into a freedom she never knew existed. Irene has led a truly extraordinary life & her harrowing story will appal & astonish, but in the end her courage & determination to find a better life for her 13 children is incredibly inspiring.
