Synopsis

Growing up in Ireland, against a background of increasing affluence and changing mores, Eilis O'Connor flouts convention by agreeing to be a surrogate mother for her infertile cousin, with the adulterous assistance of her cousin's husband. But the arrangement is threatened by Eilis' maternal feelings towards her newborn baby girl. Deciding to keep the baby, Eilis faces the outrage of her cousin and a protracted custody lawsuit follows, marking an unprecedented case in the Irish courts. However, intrigue and blackmail prevent the case from being truly closed. As emotions are stretched to breaking point among family members on both sides, can the case ever be resolved?
