Book Synopsis

THE NUMBER ONE IRISH BESTSELLER

Inspired by true events, the lives of three remarkable women interweave across time and tides in an unforgettable journey of the heart.

When journalist Jessie Daly loses everything she holds dear, she travels home to Ireland's west coast, and helps an old friend researching life during the famine. Jessie becomes drawn into the heartbreaking story of a brave young mother, Bridget Moloney, and her daughter, Norah.

On the other side of the ocean, in Boston, Kaitlin Wilson is researching her family tree. She unearths a fascinating story, but her research forces her to confront uncomfortable truths about the past, as she uncovers an unexpected connection to Ireland in famine times.

Generations before, in the small town of Clooneven, a young mother faced a heart-wrenching choice: to watch
her baby girl perish with hunger, or to start out for a new life in America, alone, in order to protect the one she
loves most, leaving behind only a letter...
