After a chance encounter with an old friend, Simon Hanlon, an Irish architect, experiences a seizure, his first in almost 30 years. Soon, they come to him daily. As he awaits a brain operation, Simon turns his mind back to his childhood on a farm near the Irish border. At 15, he was present when an IRA bomb exploded at the Remembrance Sunday parade in Enniskillen. It was in the following weeks that his seizures first began. Now, he is compelled to seek out the bomber from the remnants of his past, and to ask himself the question: why do we harm one another? A moving and unforgettable novel about love, empathy and the ways in which history imprints itself upon our hearts and minds.
