"Katy O'Donnell is engaged to be married when the novel opens.  But on the eve of her wedding she meets and falls in love with the best friend of her husband-to-be.  Jamsie O'Hara is very handsome, bold, and within hours of their meeting, determined to have Katy.  Katy's mother and Father Bolger the priest, unite in their horrified pleas to stop her, for the O'Hara's are hard-drinking, wild men from the bog, not much given to holding down a steady job.  But Katy and Jamsie are in the grip of a grand passion; they sweep aside all objections and get married."
