'Britain in Ireland is a beast exceeding terrible; his feet and claws are of iron,' The Invincibles In an Ireland still reeling from years of famine, with tenant farmers being evicted and left to starve for their inability to pay exorbitant rents, revolutionary fervour was growing.

Their mission was to strike at the heart of British Imperial power, to kill the figureheads of Ireland's oppressors.

These killings would shake the Empire to its core, and shape the following decades of Irish history.
