Publisher's Synopsis
In the wake of the 1916 Easter Rising, Dublin is a city of shattered dreams and heavy loss. Three young Volunteers, battered by defeat and burning with the fire of rebellion, embark on a desperate mission into the heart of Ireland's untamed wilderness. Their destination: the eerie, forsaken mountains where whispers tell of a cursed land called "The Hungry Grass"-a place rumoured to grant extraordinary powers to those brave or foolish enough to enter.
Driven by vengeance and the hope of reclaiming their fight against the British army, the trio confronts not only the dangers of the haunted terrain but also their own inner demons. As anger and regret gnaw at their souls, their quest becomes a harrowing journey into madness, betrayal, and the question of what they are willing to sacrifice for freedom. The Hungry Grass is a haunting exploration of loyalty, loss, and the consuming hunger for justice. Alan Treston weaves a powerful tale that lingers long after the final page.
