Description: "Jack Sammon waits in jail, accused of a horrific crime that has scarred the community. As he sits, he wrestles with his memories and scribbles the details of his life in a spiral notebook. Jack grew up on a small farm in a close-knit West of Ireland community; the middle of three children. He lost his father at an early age, a trauma made worse by his mother's disastrous choice of a second partner. As a retreat from his home, he was drawn to the local eccentric Irene, who revealed to him secrets about his family that shook him to his core."--From publisher description.
