The marriage of Sylvie & Gowry Mc Culloch was not made in heaven & has gone through difficult times. Settled now in Dublin, they have a daughter, Maeve, whom they both loved dearly. Sylvie presides over the respectable Shamrock Hotel while Gowry is a driver for Flanagan's bus company. When Francis Hagarty explodes into their lives, however, everything changes for the worse. Fran is a journalist & gunrunner & hides a shipment of smuggled arms in the Shamrock. Gowry discovers it &, sensing danger, is furious. But Sylvie has already fallen in love with Fran & is soon swept into an illicit affair. Trapped in a tangle of subversion that he resisted all his life, Gowry is forced to flee Dublin & becomes caught up in the war in Europe. As Gowry struggles to survive the horrors of trench warfare in France & Sylvie & precocious daughter Maeve are drawn into the Easter Uprising at home, the family's future hangs on heartbreaking choices
- any one of which may lead to tragedy for all of them.
