Annie Power and Jane Keating have much in common. As young Irish women in the 1840s, they know the value of family, home and friendship.
Even more importantly, they understand the need to survive against a backdrop of famine, disease and cruel colonial rule.
With Ireland crumbling around them, can these two tenacious women overcome the arc of history and create a better life?
Annie is determined to save her home from the landlord's agent. Jane, orphaned and alone, wants to help Annie and her siblings. They meet friends who help them and enemies who try to destroy them. This is the story of their struggles. With Ireland crumbling all around them and peril at every turn, can these tenacious women overcome the arc of history and create a better life?
