Publisher's Synopsis
It was a typical Tuesday evening in Kilbrody. Cathy Long was on her way to collect her drunken father from the pub. Ozzy O'Reilly was in the graveyard, watching the Dublin bus through his binoculars. Charlie Finn was pulling pints for the stragglers at the bar when it hit him: he was bored. And that's when the woman from the bus walked through the door. Ruth Treacy's arrival is anything but boring. And her extraordinary behaviour is soon the talk of the town. It seems that she's here to stay - for a while, at least - and the effect she has on Kilbrody's inhabitants will change some of them for ever.
