Tara's Fortune

It is the early 1960s and flame haired Tara Flynn has almost everything she ever dreamed of as a child growing up in Ireland. Married to her first love Gabriel Fitzgerald, she is now mistress of Ballygrace House overlooking the Tullamore countryside. But after several years of marriage there is still one thing missing – a much longed for baby.

Tara remains loyal to Biddy Harte who has left her troubled past in Ballygrace behind and is now a respected landlady in Stockport. When Biddy's husband Fred is seriously injured in the wrestling ring, Tara soon realises that Biddy has reverted to her old ways.

And when the shocking consequences of her actions are revealed Biddy discovers that all her friendships – including Tara's – are sorely tested. But Biddy is not Tara's only concern as a terrible tragedy takes Tara's idyllic life back into the darker days of her past.
