Overview

Maeve Gaffney arrives in a small West Cork town in pursuit of a dream: to be reunited with Tim, the lad she fell for years ago and who, unbeknownst to him, fathered her daughter, Emer. For Tim, now married and a pillar of the community, Emer's existence is a shock - but the chance to rekindle an old flame with her mother is tempting. For Agnes, a lonely landowner, Maeve and Emer's arrival is an opportunity to make money - and maybe new friends. For Malachi, a man of few words but deep emotions, it's ... complicated. For Emer, it's about growing up and finding her voice. For all five, the arrival of this beautiful, wild mother and her silent, observant daughter sparks a devastating chain of events none of them could have predicted.
