Following the bestselling Black Cat in the Window, the first in the trilogy, the author returns to the emotional terrain of childhood, friends and relations, and religion. Then he flies the coop to a job in Dublin, the ever intriguing world of the public service, houses and neighbours. The reader is led to recognisable places with significant characters such as Yawl by the sea, special agent St Anthony, Gerry the special bird, and Tiny, the giant of the Garretts. Ó Murchú writes about these people as one of them, relating the high points of their threatened but tenacious odyssey.
