You are in for a treat' VAL HENNESSY'A gem of a novel' TAMSIN HARGREAVESIreland, 1880 and a prosperous, provincial family observes the three great autumnal feasts of the Church. As Teresa Mulqueen lies dying, her family gather round her and beneath this drama another, no less poignant, unfolds. Unmarried daughter Agnes awaits the return of her sister Marie-Rose and brother-in-law Vincent. She adores her sister, but secretly, passionately, loves Vincent. And their marriage, she knows, is unhappy . . .
