From the critically acclaimed author of "Resurrection Man" come two tales of desire in dangerous times. Set in a small northern Ireland fishing town, "The Last""of Deeds" is narrated by a Catholic boy in love with a Protestant girl. The two young lovers act as witnesses to the loss of innocence that is an inevitable result of living in a violent place. "Love in History" moves back in time to an American air force base in Ireland during World War II, and is a profound record of love and loss, survival and redemption during wartime.
