Synopsis
In the Irish town of Schancarrig, the young people carve their initials-and those of their loves— into the copper beech tree in front of the schoolhouse. But not even Father Gunn, the parish priest, who knows most of what goes on behind Shancarrigs closed doors, or Dr. Jims, the village doctor, who knows all the rest, realizes that not everything in the placid village is what it seems. Unexpected passions and fear are bringing together the lives of so many, such as the sensitive new priest and Miss Ross, the slight, beautiful schoolteacher... Leonora, the privileged daughter of the towns richest family and Foxy Dunne, whose father did time in jail...and Nessa Ryan, whose parents run Ryans Hotel, and two very different young men. For now the secrets in Shancarrigs shadows are starting to be revealed, from innocent vanities and hidden loves to crimes of the heart...and even to murder.
