Product Description
Drunk with joy, Sam Sweet is in the arms of his newly wedded wife Deirdre, owner of the Brewer business empire since the death of her first husband Arthur. Then the ringing of a telephone shatters their bliss. Sam’s beloved Michael Collins has been treacherously shot dead and Ireland slips further into Civil War.
Meanwhile, in a neighbouring public house, owner May Murray and her lover, the compelling traveller Pack Rowan, are dreaming of blackmail and a life of ease. In their hands is evidence which will rattle the skeletons in the Brewer family closet.
In her London home, debt-ridden Constance Brewer sits simmering in bitter resentment against her former daughter-in-law Deirdre and scheming to claim the Brewer fortune as her own. Then fate sends her an unexpected and dangerous ally – Pack Rowan.
Sam Sweet vows to fight like an alleycat against those about to trample on all he holds dear. But what will be the price for shaking hands with the devil?
