There are three of them - of varying ages and
conditions of life - all Saturday's children. Nellie - cruelly
called Smelly Nelly by her neighbours - condemned to live in a
silent world and whose past conceals a brutal secret. Magsy O'Gara,
whose love for her dead husband dominates her life. Beth O'Gara, her
small daughter, born with an intelligence beyond her years, who
might just have the chance to better herself. Three women, all
seeking something that only time will reveal. |
