Description
The Indian summer has passed, leaving behind an uncertain future. For Miranda Martin, the war in Ireland seems far away, but its presence is felt in the lives of those around her. Her father's grief over his lost wife still lingers, while she looks to the future with a sense of hope and possibility. As the seasons change, news from Dublin brings Cathal into her life, bringing with him the complexities of war-torn Ireland. Meanwhile, Andrew, Miranda's brother, returns home, accompanied by an eccentric friend named Harry. The fragile peace is about to be shattered, setting in motion a tragic sequence of events. In this poignant novel, Jennifer Johnston explores the intricate web of relationships and loyalties that bind people together during times of turmoil.
