📖 Description
Iseult’s love for Kevin catapults her into a life-threatening chain of events, with far deeper and more sinister consequences and encounters than she could ever have imagined.
The destinies of Iseult Fitzgerald, a fiery but spoilt member of a privileged Dublin family, and her student lover Kevin O’Brien, are changed forever following their involvement in a pre-dawn bombing of the Customs House. The events of that day trigger murder, revenge and kidnapping. Intricately woven into this plot is a secret club, formed by the gentry who believe themselves to be above the law, and so making it very difficult for the police to infiltrate and find out the dreadful things that are going on despite their suspicions.
This dramatic novel is set against the historical background of the early 1920s, during a period of enormous political turmoil for Ireland when the fiercely fought war of independence had led to the island of Ireland seceding from the United Kingdom of Great Britain.
