Some stories demand to be told. They keep coming back, echoing down through
the decades, until they find a teller . . .

Dublin, 1943

Actress Julia Bridges disappears. The last sighting of her is entering the house of Gloria Fitzpatrick, who is later put on trial for the murder of another woman whose abortion she facilitated. But it’s never proved that Gloria had a hand in Julia’s death – and Julia’s body has never been found.

Gloria, however, is sentenced to life in an institution for the criminally insane, until
her apparent suicide a few years later, and the truth of what happened to Julia
Bridges dies with her.

Until . . .

Dublin, 1968

Nicoletta Sarto is an ambitious junior reporter for the Irish Sentinel when the bones of Julia Bridges are discovered in the garden of a house on the outskirts of Dublin. Drawn into investigating the 25-year-old mystery of Julia’s disappearance and her link to the notorious Gloria Fitzpatrick, the story takes Nicoletta into the tangled underworld of the illegal abortion industry, stirring up long-buried secrets from her own past.

As much a murder mystery story as a look at a young woman’s struggle to
succeed in a man’s world, Where They Lie is a beautifully atmospheric debut
that will stay with you long after you’ve turned the last page.
