Each man fights a war inside . . .
Khalil has kept the secret so long it seems now part of him, growing alongside the cancer that will soon steal him away from his beloved wife and troubled daughter. His small shop on the Israeli-Lebanon border has sustained him through years of turbulent conflict, but it has not protected him from the horrors of war; from the sight of the UN peacekeeper, lynched and brutalised.
And now, just as he must prepare for his final days, a young Irishman walks into Khalil's shop, the murdered man's son. All he wants to know is where his father is buried. But more than bones have been buried these long years, and the secrets of the past are often better left unearthed.
