Book one in a compelling trilogy set in in the Irish "emergency" during the Second World War, in which young Lizzie Doyle comes to term with living with her fiesty English cousin Vicky, and the effects of the war on an impoverished Ireland in the 1940s.

Book by O'Neill, Joan

In this, the the third part in the compelling Daisy Chain trilogy we see love blossom for our heroine, Lizzie Doyle, as she prepares to marry her childhood sweetheart, Pete Scanlon. For the younger generation, too, the past is never far behind; young Biddy Plunkett finds that a chance encounter with old flame, Anthony Quinn, changes her life for ever. And though John Doyle's long-lost father, Paul, is finally home with his wife and son, the trauma he has suffered since the war proves a bigger battle for Karen and John, and a new threat to the family's happiness lurks in the wings. But there is a happy ending, and a new beginning for the Doyle family, and their friends as the struggles and heartache of wartime look to be finally over.
