More about the book

Surrounded by the beauty of her native Mayo, eighteen-year-old Lily dreams of being a famous singer, but her parents have other plans for her - pursuing a college degree. However, that means leaving a passionate romance with a handsome, American named Theo. Once in Dublin, secrets and betrayal abound when Lily's sister Moyra begins a relationship with Theo and Lily's Aunt Terry appears to be harboring a hidden past. As Moyra's relationship with Theo turns grim, she desperately needs her sister's support to keep tragedy at bay. But, still longing to perform, Lily finds herself at a crossroads in life. Disturbing yet heart-warming, critical yet nostalgic, Carmen Cullen delivers a convincing portrayal of both the warmth and the wrath of 1940s Ireland.
