A sweeping story of forbidden love, family secrets, loss and second chances.

Dublin, 1962. Aileen Moran is seventeen, newly married and already carrying secrets she believes she must take to her grave.

When tragedy brings Gerald Kenny into her life, he offers everything she has longed for: tenderness, safety and the chance to begin again.

Gerald’s ambition as a heart surgeon takes them from Dublin to Cape Town and back again, but the secrets they both harbour begin to pull them apart.

Their longed-for son Sean is born into a rapidly changing Ireland but some truths remain dangerous and, like his parents, Sean learns that loving someone and having the courage to admit it are very different things.

Across two generations, the Kenny family will discover that buried secrets do not disappear. They pass from one life into another - until love finally proves stronger than silence.

Evie is lost, grief stricken and unhappy when she meets Finn who is also emerging from a traumatic experience in a previous relationship. When the two meet they fall deeply in love and change each other in profound ways.

They vow to remain each other’s anamchara, or soulmate. Then Evie abruptly ends the relationship, without explanation, to Finn’s deep distress.

They meet again twenty years later at the height of their respective careers, he as a famous film star, she as the director of a research institute, and, in that instant, the past surges forward, whole and undeniable.

Both are forced to understand that what happened twenty years previously was not the end of their story but the beginning of its consequences.
