Deirdre O'Breen is fourteen when she flees the primitive Great
Blasket Island, leaving a stunning family secret in her wake before
she arrives on the mainland. There, she finds a foreign, civilized
world -- and Manus, the architect son of a wealthy, devout family.
Together Deirdre and Manus build a marriage that, like Dublin
itself, is fraught with hope and threatened by legacies. When
Deirdre's secret resurfaces, she is forced to confront the
questions "How much of our parents do we carry? Do their sins and
frailties shape who we become to our own children?"
