description: Merle hero-worships her older sister Corinne, a college graduate making it in London and coming home only infrequently on visits. When Corinne attempts suicide, Merle is thrown into confusion and into a search for the secret that has blighted her sister's life. This is the story of four young lives, told against the backdrop of modern Dublin, in pubs, backstreets and bedsits. It is also the story of four childhoods, shocking in its frankness and its ultimate terrible revelation.
