Summary: 

It is a hot summer in rural Ireland. A child is taken by her father to live with relatives on a farm, not knowing when or if she will be brought home again. In the Kinsellas’ house, she finds an affection and warmth she has not known and slowly, in their care, begins to blossom. But there is something unspoken in this new household—where everything is so well tended to—and this summer must soon come to an end.

"'I have to go back, then?'

'Aye,' she says. 'But didn't you know that?'

I nod and look at the letter.

'You couldn't stay here forever with us two old forgeries.'"
