About this listen

Life in 1920s Belfast is hard for the working class people, but the McGuigans are more fortunate than most. But when eldest son Johnnie shatters the family’s peaceful existence with a shocking and unwelcome revelation, opinions become divided. And there are secrets in other quarters, too, when Sister Louise discovers her boyfriend is hiding something - a secret so terrible it threatens their engagement. The once close-knit family is forced to make a series of painful decisions that will change all their lives forever.

Captivating characters and strong storylines

This is another masterpiece from my all time favourite author Mary Larkin. The narrator created a vivid scene perfectly, transporting us (my family all listened along too) back to times gone by. The pace, tone, descriptions and hearing it read aloud was a delight to listen to. I’d love if all her books were available on audible.
