Reseña del editor:

Jack Boyton, only grandson of one of the few Irish peers left in Ireland, is summoned from his busy high-profile entertainment job in Dublin to his family's sedate country estate in the tight-knit community of Milltown, Donegal, where everybody knows everyone's business. When his adopted uncle becomes seriously ill, Jack soon realizes he is happiest when surrounded by family and his childhood friends, TJ and Marie, who keep him grounded in the real world. As it dawns on Jack that his family should be his priority, he enlists the help of his friends to do just that although his growing feelings for Marie complicate matters, especially when he tries to find out if she likes him as much as he does her and wonders what tension this would cause between TJ and himself. After all, Marie is TJ's twin sister. To some, village life could feel stifling, but Jack knows when the chips are down, the community will look out for each other no matter the old feuds, fights, or differences; and their help seems more worthy now that his uncle is dying. When Jack is left a daunting task from beyond the grave by his late uncle to retrieve a mythical spear and keep it from the power-hungry hands of the notorious recluse, Maximilian Elstrom, he finds trying to put things right for his uncle has led his family and friends into grave danger. The cozy life he envisaged is about to be shot to pieces when he realizes that life as he knew it, growing up full of wealth and privilege, had also been full of lies and deceit.

Biografía del autor:

Jacqueline Mc Elchar is a clerical officer in the Department of Agriculture who, in between working full time and caring for her husband and young family, goes into a typing frenzy once the sun sets. In the small rural hometown where she was brought up, she lived close to a derelict country estate; and in her mind as she wandered with friends during the summer months through the overgrown gardens, swam in the river beside it, and played games in the derelict country house, she always wondered what would have happened to the family who had lived there if the last of them had left an heir and it hadn't been allowed to fall into disrepair. All those years ago, the story of Jack Boyton and his family were formed in her young mind, but it has taken until now before she felt confident enough to write her story down.
