520    "From Tracey Lange, the New York Times bestselling author 
       of We Are the Brennans, comes The Connellys of County Down
       : a story about fierce family loyalty, good intentions 
       gone awry, and the consequences of improbable love. When 
       Tara Connelly is released from prison after serving 
       eighteen months on a drug charge, she knows rebuilding her
       life at thirty years old won't be easy. With no money and 
       no prospects, she returns home to live with her siblings, 
       who are both busy with their own problems. Her brother, a 
       single dad, struggles with the ongoing effects of a brain 
       injury he sustained years ago, and her sister's fragile 
       facade of calm and order is cracking under the burden of 
       big secrets. Life becomes even more complicated when the 
       cop who put Tara in prison keeps showing up unannounced, 
       leaving her to wonder what he wants from her now. While 
       she works to build a new career and hold her family 
       together, Tara finds a chance at love in a most unlikely 
       place. But when the Connellys' secrets start to unravel 
       and threaten her future, they all must face their worst 
       fears and come clean or risk losing one another forever. 
       The Connellys of County Down is a moving novel about 
       testing the bounds of love and loyalty. It explores the 
       possibility of beginning our lives anew and reveals the 
       pitfalls of shielding one another from the bitter truth"--
