A beautifully crafted Irish novel of loss and yearning...
Johnny, an outstanding young swimmer, went missing nearly thirty years ago: drowned, or so everyone except his sister Imogen believes. How could this have happened?
Encouraged and pushed as a child by his father, Johnny could have made the Olympic team, couldnt he? As Imogen gradually pieces together bits of her family history, we hear the tragic echoes that connect her with the Great War and Ireland in the nineteen-twenties.
Subtle, moving and beautifully constructedThe Sunday Times
