Set against the devastating backdrop of the Biafran War (1967–1970)—where two million civilians, most of them children, died of starvation—this powerful novel draws on the little-known story of Ireland’s humanitarian response. While much of the world turned away, Irish missionaries remained, establishing feeding centres and clinics. When their last supply route was cut off, they carved an airstrip from the bush, risking everything to smuggle in aid and evacuate dying children. Before the war, before Africa, Valerie Corrigan believed her life would follow a different path.

When Lisa Jones got the call to collect her aunt’s body, she didn’t expect to inherit a B&B along with it. That was before the rampaging camels, the priest with too-tight skin, and the discovery that a very permanent guest has been quietly occupying the back garden for forty-five years. At forty, Lisa had hit every wall New York had to offer.

Bearing the name of a legendary Irish warrior who risked it all for love is not much good to you when the prospect of it freezes the blood in your veins. Add to that, Naoise’s crush, and best friend, Declan, is the facsimile of her heroic namesake, and has just confessed to having feelings for her. But Naoise’s had a tough few years. Things with her own boyfriend aren’t all they seem on the outside. Her boss, a hot-headed Italian café owner, enjoys making her life a misery.
