Joy Stapleton is Ireland’s most infamous prisoner. She was incarcerated for two life sentences after the bodies of her two young sons were found buried in a shallow grave in the Dublin mountains. But she has always maintained her innocence and argues the only reason she was ever arrested in the first place comes down to mere coincidence. But it’s a coincidence that didn’t convince detectives, that didn’t convince a jury, and that hasn’t endeared her to the inmates of Mountjoy Prison. That is until eight years into her sentence, when new evidence emerges, and everybody—including Joy’s long-suffering husband—is forced into a rethink. Take your seat in the courtroom for the retrial of the century...and see just how wide you’re willing to allow a coincidence to stretch your beliefs.
In 1973, twenty-year-old Moll Gladney takes a morning bus from her rural home and disappears.
Bewildered and distraught, Paddy and Kit must confront an unbearable prospect: that they will never see their daughter again.
Five years later, Moll returns. What - and who - she brings with her will change the course of her family's life forever.
Beautiful and devastating, this exploration of loss, alienation and the redemptive power of love reaffirms Donal Ryan as one of the most talented and empathetic writers at work today.
'Endlessly surprising and incredibly moving' David Nicholls
'With each new novel Donal Ryan's ink seems to sink deeper into the page. In Strange Flowers he gathers together the fragments of broken lives and makes us something new and beautiful from them' Rónán Hession, author of Leonard and Hungry Paul
'Exquisite ... you will love the quiet world of Paddy & Kit Gladney and all it is their daughter Moll brings to their door. Beautiful' Anne Griffin, author of When All Is Said
