Boston expat Maura Donovan came to Ireland to honor her grandmother's last wish, but she never expected to stay in provincial County Cork - much less to inherit a house and a pub, Sullivan's, in the small village of Leap.

With a crop of new friends and a budding relationship with handsome Mick Nolan, Maura's life seems rosier than ever - but even in Ireland, you cant always trust your luck. It begins with Maura's discovery of a body in the ravine behind the pub. And then, the Irish garda­ reveal that the victim's face has been battered beyond recognition. Who is the faceless victim? Who wanted him dead? And why was his body dumped in the backyard of Sullivan's Pub? Even after the dead man is finally given a name, nobody admits to knowing him. In the tight-knit world of Leap, no one is talking-and now it's up to Maura to uncover the dark secrets that lurk beneath the seemingly quiet town
