The village of Sperrin in Ireland during the Second World War sees the lives of six people become inextricably intertwined, with far-reaching consequences for each of them: — Valentino McKelvie, whose loss of sight does not hinder his perpetual search for sexual liaisons.— Emma Johnston, a young English woman exiled to Sperrin because of a family scandal.— Sir Kenneth Montgomery, the local magnate and owner of the town’s linen mill, now given over to making parachutes for the war.— Eleanor Montgomery, Sir Kenneth’s wife, who leads a lonely life in the big house at Mill Brae, grieving over her inability to have children.— Kryzsztof Walenski, a young Polish man sent by his father to Ireland to avoid the war.— Kate Reilly, Sir Kenneth’s secretary.In telling this fascinating story of passion and deception, Michael O’Kane demonstrates a remarkable talent for bringing his characters to life as well as an ability to create an evocative picture of time and place. 3
