For fourteen-year old Nan and her younger sister Mary, the trials of convent life blend uneasily with their innocent yet peculiar home life, where the maid regales them with tales of a lurid past. But harsh reality is looming, a reality that in 1920s Dublin, is very shocking - and very adult. By the author of ROOM FOR A SINGLE LADY. [Google Books]
