Though they are each all the other has, the girls are propelled in opposite directions as theygrow up. Rebellious Isabel turns her back on the church and Ireland, traveling to Newfoundland where she pursues a perilous yet independent life. Devout Aelish chooses to remain in Northern Ireland and takes the veil, burying painful truths beneath yearsof silence. For decades the two are separated, each unaware of the other's life. But after years of isolation Aelish is unexpectedly summoned to Newfoundland, where she and her estranged sister begin to bridge the chasm between them. Reunion brings to light the painful secrets and seismic deceptions that have kept these sisters apart, leaving the McGuire twins to begin reconstructing their understanding about themselves as women and as family--what they know of love, hope, and above all, forgiveness."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. $9 85586 650 0 $a Twins $v Fiction. $9 86608 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. $9 111034 650 0 $a Self-realization in women $v Fiction. $9 130750 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft $9 200624 941 $a 5 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20240503011202.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409045421.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012803.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240302011541.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240220011348.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D115C080CFBD11EEA823266155ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
