A very dreary, but psychologically interesting mystery, which takes place in 1950’s Ireland, and has to do with sending babies to Boston so that they can be bred for the Church. The antihero, Quirk, is suitably complex. I very much disliked the sections about Andy, an unpleasant, mentally unstable young man, who shook a baby girl to death, and violently raped Phoebe, who was in shock because she had just found out that Quirk was her father.
