Summary

What makes a mother abandon her children? Twenty-six years ago, a young woman boarded a ferry from Dun Laoghaire to Holyhead leaving behind her four children. She never saw them again. Now the O'Connor children still bear the scars of their mother's abandonment. Mary-Pat, who raised her brother and sisters, pushes her own family further and further away. June fills the void inside with money and status. Pi, still living in the family home, has shut himself off from the world, while, Rosie, the youngest, has spent the past ten years denying who she is. When Rosie returns to the small town to get married, their father reveals a secret that awakens old ghosts.
