And at first their life together is glitteringly romantic drinking in Soho, journeying to Marseilles. But its not long before Rosaleen finds herself fearfully, unexpectedly alone. Desperate, she seeks help from the only source she knows, the local priest, and is directed across the sea to Ireland on a journey that will seal her fate.

But there is a crucial part of the story missing and time is running out. Aoife needs to know: what became of Rosaleen?
