Galway 1993. Young Garda Cormac Reilly is called to a scene he will never forget. Two silent, neglected children – 15-year-old Maude and five-year-old Jack – are waiting for him at a crumbling country house. Upstairs, their mother lies dead. Twenty years later, a body surfaces in the icy black waters of the River Corrib.

This is the remarkable story of an ordinary woman who decided to walk through the door God opened for her, whatever the cost.
