From the author of Last Chance in Paris, The Bridge to Always is a story of connections and second chances; it's about mothers and daughters, about the promises we make, break and - sometimes - honour, and, ultimately, about love.
Then
Ten years ago, when she was at university, Maeve Gaffney fell for a boy. When she fell pregnant, she disappeared from his life.
For the next nine years, it was just Maeve, Maeve's mother, and Maeve's daughter, Emer.
Now
After her mother's death, Maeve decides it's finally time to find her daughter's father - the man she's never stopped idolising - and stake her claim.
For her, her arrival in the small West Cork town where he still lives, offers a chance to have the nuclear family she's always dreamed of.
For Tim, Emer's father, who hadn't known of her existence, it's an opportunity to rekindle an old flame.
For Nóinín, Tim's wife, it's a threat, pure and simple.
For Agnes, who sells a near-derelict property to Maeve, it's a chance to make money - and perhaps a friend.
For Malachi, who is something of a loner, it's - complicated.
And for Emer? For her, as always, it's about Maeve.
For all six, Maeve and Emer's arrival set in motion a fatal chain of events no-one could have predicted.
