The mystery of Elizabeth Keane's father is one that has never been solved by the people of Buncarragh - not for lack of speculation.
Her mother Patricia had been assumed a spinster, until she began dating a mysterious man from out of town, and within months had left Buncarragh and had married. Less than two years later, Patricia was back, with a new baby in her arms, but no new husband by her side and unbendingly silent about her recent past. A secret she would take with her to her grave.
Now, as Elizabeth returns to the village after her mother's funeral, bringing with her her own regrets and wounds, she finds a thin pile of ribbon-bound letters at the back of a wardrobe that may at last hold the key to her past:
Dear Lonely Leinster Lady,
I'm not really sure how to begin...

I imagine for non native speakers some of the humour may be lost. My tipp, don't take some of the phrases too literally!!
Graham Norton is a brilliant narrator and I throughly enjoyed putting on my head phones and being taken on a journey starting in 60's Irland were laughter and the fear of scandal co-existed right up to the smartphone era.
My one negative...in the middle I got a bit bored and fast forwarded one chapter a little..... sorry Garham!
I would definitely recommend this book!
Great Irish Drama
