A New York woman returns to Ireland after learning she has cancer; a Dublin policeman, damaged by life and drink, flees the local mafia. Their paths cross by chance and they embark on a flight to the Inishowen peninsula, a place of beauty and peace where blood also runs.
The French edition, translated by Pierrick Masquart and Gérard Meudal, was published in 2001; the original work appeared in 2000.
For readers of contemporary literary fiction, especially those interested in Irish narrative and characters at the edge.
