The curse of Cain was a term used by Irish folk about tinkers, because of their roaming around the country in search of a living. Niamh Murphy, our protagonist, is a young woman ready for adventure, romance and taking risks. This vivacious woman is tried by family, friends and the holy people of Ireland. Despite her harsh upbringing there is a real fire inside her heart that will not stop burning...with one goal, to find love no matter what the circumstances. The secret language of Tinkers is used in this volume... Marie

This is an inspiring and passionate story about a woman who survived abuse, miscarriage, hatred and exportation to Australia. Altogether wonderful to read of such a heroine in our day... People have said they really enjoyed this book. I even had calls from men who read it and loved it, which was surprising as it is written from a young woman's perspective.
