Ashes in the Wind interweaves the destinies of two families: the Anglo-Irish Burkes and the Catholic Irish Sullivans, beginning in 1919 with a shocking murder and the burning of the Burkes' ancestral castle in Kerry. Childhood friends John Burke and Tomas Sullivan will find themselves on opposite sides of an armed struggle that engulfs Ireland.

Only 60 years later will the triumphant and redemptive finale of this enthralling story be played out.

England in 1647: King Charles is in prison, and Cromwell’s men are fighting the King’s men. These are dangerous times for everybody. The four Beverley children have no parents; their mother is dead and their father died while fighting for the King. Now Cromwell’s soldiers have come to burn the house - with the children in it.

"Stop them - they've stolen the King!" It was a nightmare that seemed to have no end. How on earth did the orphan Pip end up fleeing across medieval Fenland in the dead of night, with the King of England and a living, breathing, talking stone gargoyle called Perfect? Why was that man trying to kill them?
