Lamb (King Penguin) Book

On a promontory jutting out into the Atlantic wind stands the Bortsal run by Brother Benedict, where boys are taught a little of God and a lot of fear. To Michael Lamb, one of the younger brothers, the regime is without hope and when he inherits a small legacy he defies his elders and runs away taking with him a twelve-year-old boy, Owen Kane. Radio Eireann call it kidnapping. For Michael the act is the beginning of Owen's salvation, his only chance of escaping the grim, imprisoned life that is marked as his destiny. Posing as father and son, they concentrate on discovering the happiness so unfamiliar to them both. But as the outside world closes in around them, as time, money and opportunity run out, Michael finds himself moving towards a solution that is as uncompromising as it is inspired by love.Read More
