In 1846 a baby girl is born to a young Irish fisherman and his wife. It is the second year of the Great Hunger and the young couple choose to remain in Ireland, while family and friends are leaving. Their story takes place in the fishing village of Blackrock, Dundalk, but with the cities of Liverpool and Sunderland playing a critical part in their lives. Is their love for each other and their homeland enough to sustain them, or will they be forced to join the one and a half million who emigrate? This is the story of a young man's love for his wife and child and the struggle to provide for his family in one of the darkest periods of Ireland's history.

Jean Reinhardt lives in a seaside town in Cork, Ireland. In addition to the Irish Family Saga, she is the author of the Finding Trilogy, a young adult suspense series.

Michael Healy trained at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York and has appeared off-Broadway and off-off Broadway in many productions. He worked on Saturday Night Live for three years and has appeared in several national television commercials. In New York he has worked on stage with Harold Prince, Tatum O'Neal, and William Hickey, and in Rhode Island he has worked extensively with the Gamm Theatre, the Rhode Island Center for the Performing Arts, the Courthouse Center for the Arts, and the Firehouse Theater. He won an award for acting in 2007.
