Tommy, The Talking Christmas Tree by Mary Ann Concilio

Tommy, The Talking Christmas Tree by Mary Ann Concilio

Rachel Isaacson, spirited, otherworldly and haunted, is born into a rigidly Old World family in New York's Lower East Side. Hungry for independence, Rachel enters a marriage of convenience with violent consequences.

Across the Atlantic, storyteller, fiddler and cliff climber Ciaran McMurrough is raised in pastoral innocence on Rathlin off the coast of Ulster. His upbringing in a tight-knit, isolated community leaves him unprepared for the subtle political passions following the Irish Civil War.

Outcasts-one by choice, one by chance-Rachel and Ciaran meet on the docks of lower Manhattan in 1928. Drawn to each other in this lyrical story, must they repeat a doomed cycle as eternal lovers?

Tunnel of Mirrors fires the imagination and stirs the soul...a story to savour that remains long in the mind. I loved it.

-Sunday Times Bestselling Author of Our Story, Miranda Dickinson

Humour, emotion, and perfectly tuned dialogue, ensures her people are triumphantly alive.

-Novelist Janette Jenkins, author of Firefly and Little Bones

Tunnel of Mirrors is a beautiful, lyrical recreation of the past. With warmth, wit and great heart, Ferne Arfin takes the reader back into the struggles and small victories of a lost world.

-Toby Litt, English writer and academic, author of Patience
