Fenian's Trace

FENIAN’S TRACE tells us of two young men raised as brothers in the west of Ireland during the early 1900s. Though they choose different paths when the rebellion comes, they both take a fancy to the spirited and alluring Maria upon her homecoming from America. It’s a story of secrets and sacrifice, fathers and sons, loyalty and love.
