It’s the inaugural book in the “Children of the Famine” series, set against the backdrop of the Great Famine in Ireland.

Determined to avoid the dreaded workhouse, they set out on a journey to locate their great-aunts. The book provides a stark depiction of the famine’s hardships, including the fight for food, the spread of disease, and the omnipresence of death. It’s a story of survival, resilience, and the enduring strength of family bonds.
