'An engrossing, unpredictable, beautifully crafted novel' RODDY DOYLE
Farouks country has been torn apart by war.
Lampys heart has been laid waste by Chloe.
Johns past torments him as he nears his end.
The refugee. The dreamer. The penitent. From war-torn Syria to small-town Ireland, three men, scarred by all they have loved and lost, are searching for some version of home. Each is drawn towards a powerful reckoning, one that will bring them together in the most unexpected of ways.
