A story of paradoxes of morality and behaviour, Cassidy's Cross
gives a kaleidoscope view of the fictional area of Doonbay in
1960's County Waterford. The picture is fractured and tangled, with
petty crime, affairs, illicit pregnancy, rape and murder among the
happenings. Set against the backdrop of a spent copper-mining area,
the story unfolds to reveal a hotbed of secrets. The school,
church, quarry and the village pub are all focal points of
interest, with a bit of cross-roads dancing and a donkey derby
thrown in for good measure. Two brothers are the key characters;
James 'Ringyboy' Ring, and the older tearaway Johnny who is home
from holiday in London. James uncovers a letter which literally has
an explosive effect on the citizens. The not so good citizens of
Cassidy's Cross
