Annie soon makes a friend, an Italian waitress named Elena. As their friendship deepens into something more passionate and dangerous for them both, however, Annie’s past rises up to haunt her. Once again she will be forced to flee.

A century later, in post-pandemic Ireland, Emer is also running, and finds a haven in her family’s home in West Kerry. But here, too, the past is refusing to die, and as Annie and Emer’s lives intertwine, long buried secrets are about to be revealed.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Ireland's past and present overlap in this stunning novel that combines history with a fascinating mystery. Sinéad Crowley writes with tremendous warmth balanced by enjoyably astute observation of how we live now. She has a deep understanding of the small joys and great sorrows in the lives lived by our ancestors. Enthralling, absorbing and entirely delightful (Jane Casey)

Hugely atmospheric and absorbing (Adele Parks)
