Description
Annette is a fourth generation Australian descended from Irish, English and Scottish settlers. Her Irish blood has screamed out ever since her grandfather evaded the question about her Irish ancestors with a wry grin and the statement of ‘Och Lassie, you don’t wanta know about them.’ In 1999, Annie and her husband, Allan, boarded a plane for Ireland to find the Irish in her. Laugh, cry, let your mind reel to the music and people. Experience the sense of belonging that claimed her and be there when she lays the spirit of her mother on the summit of Slieve Gullion, the O’Hanlon mountain in County Armagh 22 years after her death. Tread the paths of Patrick and Martha and marvel at family stories, myths and folk lore. Fairies, highway men, white witches and everlasting new friends stirred her soul and relentlessly drew her back to Erin.
