The book delves into the historical context of the Magdalen laundries, where Irish women and girls were imprisoned under the guise of moral correction, operated by the Catholic Church until 1996. It highlights a scandal that arose in 1993 when remains of 155 inmates were discovered and exhumed from a convent, sparking public outrage. The narrative emphasizes the laundries' impact on Irish society and culture, particularly following the release of the film "The Magdalene Sisters" in 2002, which brought further attention to this dark chapter in history.
