Books, Manuscripts
This epic saga, interweaving the destinies of the Anglo-Irish Burkes and the Catholic Irish Sullivans, through three generations, begins in 1919 with a shocking murder and the burning of the Burkes' ancestral castle in Kerry. John Burke and Tomas Sullivan were friends at school. But now they find themselves on opposite sides of an armed struggle which will engulf Ireland and take both men to a day of reckoning on the battlefields of the Spanish Civil War. Meanwhile John's doomed love for the daughter of an IRA hardliner will send him into exile in England, knowing that somewhere, in the Ireland of his heart, is a child he may never be allowed to meet.
