But when Frank throws them all out on the street, Mary flees to her family in Dublin. There she meets Richard O’Neill, a handsome though solitary man. Despite the attraction between them, Mary’s not looking for love, and when she hears that Frank needs her, she returns to Liverpool, foreseeing a future of yet more hardship. But there are surprises in store. Though tragedy and danger are looming, a brighter horizon lies beyond ??? if Mary’s prepared to be strong and take the chances that come her way.
