Synopsis: Two women, two houses and two return journeys. ‘Tara Road’ is a story about lives broken, changing perspective and the healing power of friendship and time. In Maeve Binchy’s words – ‘In my stories, the cavalry doesn’t come riding over the hill, there’s no magic solution to life’s problems – you have to rescue yourself’.
