`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 & the land they have farmed for generations, & 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 Toibin ` Elegant, consuming & richly inspired. superb.` Colum Mc Cann ` Powerful & beautifully paced.. .I was totally gripped.` Catherine O` Flynn
