February 24, 2025 Where is Jón? - 06. The Notes
During the first five years of Jón’s disappearance, through to February 2024, there was no indication of where Jón’s remains might lie. But behind the scenes, two anonymous notes had been handed into the authorities. The first was handed into a Garda station in 2022 - and the second to a priests house in 2023. Both indicated Jón was buried in a specific location. Could this be the first real breakthrough in the search for Jón?

As the first weeks turned into the first months since Jón’s disappearance, his family struggle to come to terms with what’s going on.

About Poison Ink

From the publisher's feed

Poison Ink tells the story of two neighbouring families who, over the course of five years, were terrorised by a series of sinister and threatening poison-pen letters. As fear and suspicion took hold, they began to question who they could trust. Who was behind the disturbing campaign, and what could they do to bring it to an end?
