‘A wonderful novel. I was deeply moved. Outstanding.’ John Boyne

Mark Casey did not expect to fall in love. But from the minute he saw Joanne Lynch across the garden of a Dublin pub, it seemed that nothing else was possible.

But Mark is also drawn back – guiltily – to his family and the land they have farmed for generations, and when he discovers the truth behind a family feud, it threatens to destroy this passionate love affair.

‘A novel of quiet power, filled with moments of carefully-told truth’ Colm Tóibín

‘Elegant, consuming and richly inspired. Superb.’ Colum McCann

‘Powerful and beautifully paced . . . I was totally gripped.’ Catherine O’Flynn
