Summary
Alice Taylor’s gripping sequel to The Woman of the House, a story of land, love and family set in rural Ireland.

Tensions on the home front are bitter enough, but at the Conway farm across the river, more trouble is brewing. Slovenly Matt Conway feels trapped and abuses his wife, Biddy. Spurred on by a misguided belief that the Phelans got the best of him in a loan to buy land, he keeps vigil at a fence post plotting revenge....

Engaging story of a past age visited by nostalgia.
This charming story of Irish country folk is brought to perfection by the charm of the excellent reader. This work is worthy successor in a later generation to the enchanting Irish stories of Somerville and Ross.
