Product Description
Set in modern day Ireland, The Blackwater Lightship tells the tale of three women, Dora Devereaux, her daughter Lily and grand-daughter Helen. They arrive at an uneasy peace with each other after years of strife. Declan, Helen’s adored brother, is dying. Brought together in the grand-mother’s crumbling old house with two of Declan’s friends, the characters are forced to listen to each other’s stories, funny, shocking, sad and come to an acceptance of each other across generational boundaries.
