Nicholas Farquhar's cottage in the foothills of the Wicklow mountains. Springtime.
A young man approaches an older friend seeking advice on a girl he loves. He is found the following day, a gunshot wound to the stomach and a cryptic suicide note in his hand. Questioned by the boy's grieving father, Nicholas Farquhar is forced to confront his role in the tragedy as well as some disturbing buried histories of his own.
