An exile can never return...

Finn O'Grady, working the night shift as a security guard in London, receives a phone call at dawn. Bridie, a woman he once loved before he left his hometown of Kilmeaden in the west of Ireland, believes she's in terrible danger and needs his help.

Finn has made a new life for himself and can’t go back to the pain and tragedy he left behind in Ireland. But when Bridie’s brother is found brutally murdered, Finn has no choice but to return to a life he’d tried to forget.
