A second chance at love with the older Declan brings her unexpected happiness, but their romance sparks speculation: what does a woman like her see in a man like him? And what happened to his wife who abandoned him all those years ago? The gossip only serves to bring them closer, but when Declan becomes ill, things fall apart.

Carol is forced to leave their beloved home and return to her parents. Unwilling to see her daughter suffer, Carol's mother vows to get to the bottom of things. It seems there are secrets in Declan's past, and suddenly the house they shared takes on a more sinister significance...

Frankie Always on the periphery, looking on, young Frankie Howe was never quite sure enough of herself to take centre stage - after all, life had already judged her harshly. Now old, Frankie finds it easier to forget the life that came before. Then Damian, a young Irish carer, arrives at her London flat, there to keep an eye on her as she recovers from a fall.

A memory is sparked, and the past crackles into life as Damian listens to the story Frankie has kept stored away all these years. Travelling from post-war Ireland to 1960s New York - a city full of art, larger than life characters and turmoil - Frankie shares a world in which friendship and chance encounters collide. A place where, for a while, life blazes with an intensity that can't last but will perhaps live on in other ways and in other people.

But as Frankie's past slowly emerges, her spirit and endurance are revealed as undeniable . . .

and unforgettable.
