THE POWERFUL AND MOVING NOVEL OF NEW BEGINNINGS AND OLD FAMILY SECRETS FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ASK AGAIN, YES

'A fearless writer' LISA TADDEO
'An epic story about immigration, identity and family' Guardian

______

1960s Rural Ireland. Greta Cahill must abandon her quiet village to follow her fearless sister Johanna onto a ship bound for New York . . .

It's here that she steps out of her sister's shadow and into a life of her own, rich with love, work and family.

As the years pass Greta longs to revisit the past - to see her mother, to show her what she has made of herself.

But she must protect a family secret, decades old.

So when her children conspire to unite the worlds she's kept so carefully apart, Greta fears she could lose it all . . .

A profoundly moving, compassionate story of self-discovery, The Walking People is a powerful and compelling story about our connection to the past.

'A novel of great compassion and understanding . . . rich with story' JOHN BOYNE on Ask Again, Yes

'Keane's previous novel Ask Again, Yes, was on my best Books of 2019, and this is just as good. Its slow, melodic pace proves we don't always need fast action and twists' Prima, 'Best Books of March'

'The characters are so well drawn and out of the ordinary that I was quickly drawn into their story and didn't want it to end' 5***** Reader Review

'The story becomes so engrossing it grows on you with its real and engaging characters ... a very moving and original love story' Irish Examiner

'A gorgeous nostalgic family drama with real characters. Loved it' 5***** Reader Review
