Isabella swaps Dublin for Manhattan to find herself and lose Harry. Harry, with whom she had been primary school classmates, teenage sweethearts, university lovers and a not-quite-grown-up couple. Harry, who is so caught up in anti-war demonstrations that he fails to organise a life for the two of them. Harry, a committed but penniless “revolutionary activist”. Harry, whom she loves and misses and must learn to live without.
Harry loves Isabella totally. Except for the bit of him that loves Sinead. Sinead loves Harry. And Sinead wants desperately to help her friend Moussa, a doctor living amidst the fear and devastation of the fighting in Fallujah.
The lives of Isabella, Harry and Sinead are haunted by the horrors of the war in Iraq, culminating in a tragedy that will change lives forever.
