A compelling story of love, loss and the power of sisterhood and family
relationships to survive the deepest hurts and secrets.
Everything changes for Kate, Moya and Romy when they receive word that
Maeve Dillon, their mother, is critically ill. It is time to return from
Dublin, London and New York to Rossmore and the old stone house
overlooking the Irish Sea where they grew up. But ancient jealousies
surface as each sister confronts the past and the decisions they have
made.
For work-driven Kate it is time to take stock of her role as a
high-flying ambitious lawyer and single parent; life is a battle between
work and looking after Molly, with little time for a proper
relationship. Even Patrick, the man she once fell for, has ended up
marrying her sister. Beautiful and intense Moya must take a hard look at
her marriage to the charming but unfaithful Patrick and consider her own
worth. For wild child Romy, who has travelled the world and hasn't put a
foot on Irish soil for years, it is time to finally stop running and
find the courage to confront her family.
A good and caring mother, Maeve Dillon has somehow over the years
labelled each of her three daughters: Moya the beautiful, Kate the
brains, and Romy, the bold and wild one. Now it is finally time for all
three to break out of the box.
