Inhaltsangabe

When Mary Ann Ward met Alan Reed, it didn't matter to her that he was English and a Protestant. He was the key to a new world, free from the secrets and ghosts of her Catholic childhood in County Antrim - a world where she would belong.
Now, years later, Marianne Reed is coming home, leaving her husband behind in London. The long-suppressed experiences of her girlhood have tainted her present, causing heartache and culminating in tragedy.
As she plans to settle with her children in a vastly altered Northern Ireland and tries to come to terms with her loving but relentlessly driven mother, she is drawn to confront the past. Memories of unhappy wartime exile in the decayed County Monaghan farm of her mother's family, the McKennas, and the small-town tragedies of home colour her account of a troubled girlhood. Mary Ann and her sister Birdie may have ridden out the contradictions of life in a Protestant town, but still have to exorcise the dark secrets of the McKennas.
And Mary Ann herself, tender, passionate and vulnerable, must face up to the ghosts of her past before she can find peace.
