Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead.

Cyril Avery is not a real Avery - or at least that's what his adoptive parents tell him. And he never will be. But if he isn't a real Avery, then who is he? Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead.

Excellent is an understatement!
I loved that it spanned generations. The characters were very endearing , and the story wove many tales. The narrator was outstanding. I found myself thinking with an Irish accent, that's how good she was. The Irish expressions were so very interesting and fun! I would catch myself thinking about the story all the time and was always glad whrn I could finally sit down and listen. This is an amazing book. Enjoy!!!

Overall a good story.
I liked the story but the narrator had some trouble with American accents- especially the male characters.

Excellent read/listen
I absolutely went through the array of Emotion produced by Lucinda Riley's writing! Very well thought out using family history and family life experiences. These are the kind of stories I like to read that inter-twine our ancestors lives with our lives. What a great Mystery lies in between their lives and our lives, and how their lives impact our lives today in being who we are and what we can do with our life. It goes to show how we are all connected together all in a good way to help each other get where we're going today.
