- The Men And Women Must Decide Between The Traditions Of The Past And The Promises Of The Future!
- “Reading one of Maeve Binchy’s novels is like coming home.” –The Washington Post
- “Love, longing, and rich scenes of daily life. . . . What could be sweeter than a trip to [an] Irish village packed with robust native characters.” –The Christian Science Monitor
- “A remarkably gifted writer [and] a wonderful student of human nature.” –The New York Times Book Review
When a new highway threatens to bypass the town of Rossmore and cut through Whitethorn Woods, everyone has a passionate opinion about whether the town will benefit or suffer. But young Father Flynn is most concerned with the fate of St. Annâ€™s Well, which is set at the edge of the woods and slated for destruction. People have been coming to St. Annâ€™s for generations to share their dreams and fears, and speak their prayers. Some believe it to be a place of true spiritual power, demanding protection; others think itâ€™s a mere magnet for superstitions, easily sacrificed.
Â
Father Flynn listens to all those caught up in the conflict, as the men and women of Whitethorn Woods must decide between the traditions of the past and the promises of the future.
