On a cold night in a remote Irish village, a girl goes missing. Sweet, loving
Rachel Holohan was about to be engaged to the son of the local big shot.
Instead, she’s dead in the river.
In a place like this, her death isn’t simple. It comes wrapped in generations-old
grudges and power struggles, and it splits the townland in two. Retired Chicago
detective Cal Hooper has friends here now and he owes them loyalty, but his
fiancée Lena wants nothing to do with Ardnakelty’s tangles.
As the feud becomes more vicious, their settled peace starts to crack apart.
And when they uncover a scheme that casts a new light on Rachel’s death and
threatens the whole village, they find themselves in the firing line . . .
