TWO DAYS IN ARAGON

TWO DAYS IN ARAGON by M.J. Farrell. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780860684671.

Grania and Sylvia Fox live in the Georgian house of Aragon, with their mother, their Aunt Pidgie and Nan ONeill, the family nurse. Grania is conducting a secret affair with Nans son, Foley, a wily horse-breeder, whilst Sylvia who is pretty in the right and accepted way falls for the charms of Captain Purvis. Attending Aragons strawberry teas, the British Army Officers can almost forget the reason for their presence in Ireland. But the days of dignified calm at Aragon are numbered, for Foley is a member of Sinn Fein.
