Overview:

The setting is Ballybofey, County Donegal, February 1, 1912.  Saoirse Fagan has lost her childhood home and family. This story starts when she is delivered to a castle door to start a new job as housemaid. No one answers. A neighbor strolls by and tells her the owner has died, just a week before, and his wife left home.

Saorise has nowhere to go. She walks into the unknown, a downpour erupts and she is picked up by Aileen McCready who offers a stall in a shed to stay for the night. This is a heartwarming story about need, warmth and friendships formed. Aileen’s brother needs her assistance to keep the family farm going but is not sure about accepting her help. But our heroine, Saorise is not one to give up easily.
