The Planter's Daughter

When the burned body of passionate environmentalist Sadhbh Drummond - the "Green Maud Gonne" - is found in a forestry plantation in West Cork, it soon becomes clear that her death was not an accident. Her Anglo-Irish heritage and great beauty marked her as an outsider, and her campaigns to save the land and climate activism put her into conflict with many, including local farmer Tom Keating and resentful stepdaughter Sinead Furlong. When Detective Inspector Rosa Keane is called on to investigate, she soon learns that animosity between the Drummonds and the Keatings dates back to the War of Independence, and that the terrible legacy left from that time resounds through generations. But Rosa hides a secret of her own, one which threatens to derail the whole investigation if found out. Can she discover what happened to Sadhbh before it's too late?
