Publisher's Synopsis
When Boston-born Erin arrives in wind-tossed Roone Bay, she's heart-sore, tired and lonely. Her marriage is over: she's come to build a new life for herself on Ireland's rugged southern coast. And to unravel the story behind the mysterious note in her family's ancient Bible that has haunted her since childhood. But hazel-eyed former lifeboat volunteer Finn, the only local historian around, quietly refuses her pleas to help. So, Erin settles in to the town, with its whitewashed cottages and ruddy-cheeked fishermen, and begins her quest alone. Who was her ancestor, Nellie, and why did she leave Ireland for America? What happened to her missing child, Annie, and did Nellie ever see her again? Just as Erin despairs ever uncovering the truth, one rain-soaked night she is rescued by Finn, who finally agrees to help.
