Deadly Silence

Deadly Silence is a record of Clodagh’s sister Jacqueline’s attempts to ‘uncover the truth’ about what happened … It is a deeply poignant account of innocent lives lost for no reason and then symbolically lost again by the meaning of the deaths being misunderstood … Deadly Silence is a vital book * Sunday Independent *That it is so utterly compelling, even as she narrates some deeply distressing events, is a testament to her resilience and grace under the most catastrophic circumstances * Irish Times *As riveting as it is heartbreaking … an important read * Irish Independent *

Jacqueline Connolly was born in rural Ireland and raised as one of three children. She works as a Senior HR Professional. She holds a master’s degree in Human Resources Management and, inspired by her own experiences, has conducted valuable research into vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, secondary traumatic stress and burnout for Irish healthcare workers.

She is an advocate for counselling, healing and refusing to let catastrophe and adversity define us as people. As a result of her devastating loss, she is also passionate about raising awareness of domestic violence and the insidious nature of coercive control and other forms of domestic abuse.

She lives with her son in Cavan.
