Christmas morning, 1963. Fifteen-year-old Kitty Doherty gives birth in a cold, unfriendly Irish convent. She knows her beautiful baby boy presents a huge danger to her family's Catholic community back in Liverpool's Four Streets. When her baby is adopted by a wealthy family in Chicago, Kitty considers the problem solved. But soon it's obvious the baby is very sick and only his birth mother can save him.
In Liverpool, a charismatic new priest has arrived. As the Dohertys cope with the tragic consequences of Kitty's pregnancy, the police seem close to solving the double murder which rocked the Four Streets to the core. But now all that is about to be put at risk once again.
What people are saying about THE BALLYMARA ROAD:
'Brilliant finale to the other books, tied up all the loose ends and a good ending'
'Beautifully written, I found myself really engrossed in the characters and the author had a magical way of making you feel you were right there with them'
'Looking forward to the next book Nadine Dorries writes, she will definitely be on my pre-order list from now on'
It's not often you get a series where each of the following books were better than the last! Highly recommended!'
