It is Ireland, 1922. Micheal Collins has a clandestine meeting in Cork that could put a stop to the impending civil war if he could only make it back to Dublin in time. In present day Ireland a retired American couple finds a document on their property. Can they stay alive long enough to get the truth out into the open or will the nefarious forces from 100 years ago succeed again? A fast-paced historical fiction novel blended with a modern-day espionage thriller. An exciting read all the way through!
This amazing short novel was so fun to read. It keeps you engaged completely, and moves at a fast pace, back and forth in time. I learned a great deal about Michael Collins and his times, but I also loved the intriguing way the story unfolds between past and present. A great ending, too!
