They were once inseparable as they gorged on the proceeds of their criminal empires - the Hutches, Kinahans, Byrnes.

But when David Byrne was killed in 2016 at the Regency, Thomas 'Bomber' Kavanagh came back from the UK to help his Cartel colleagues wage war on the Hutches.

In this episode we go back to 2001 when the young Liam and David Byrne were central characters in the brutal Drimnagh/Crumlin feud, a drugs war between former friends which claimed 16 lives.

We hear from a former associate of the Byrnes and Kinahans who pours doubt on the levels of their brutality - could it all be a misunderstanding?

We see the seeds of a Kinahan/Byrne split as the State takes down the Byrnes and paranoia runs rife - putting the spotlight on the insidious villain James ‘Jaws’ Byrne, the family patriarch who refused to sanction peace.

And why Daniel Kinahan could find no place for his old pal Liam Byrne in his new life in Dubai.
