What happens when the right people meet, at the wrong time?
Melanie McQuaid is firmly fixated on the future, whilst troubled journalist Richard Blake is stuck resolutely in the past. Sparks fly when they first meet, until Richard's past catches up with him and a dramatic turn of events changes the course of both their lives.
Disillusioned from a broken engagement, Melanie chooses to keep life simple by avoiding love altogether. Pushed to her limit, she eventually embarks on a life-changing trip to the Norwegian fjords. Richard is meanwhile furious at his assignment to report on the international anti-whaling campaign. Alone at sea, a family tragedy back home finally forces him to confront his demons.
On opposite sides of the world, they look into the eye of a whale - two magical moments which ultimately bring them back together; but can the time ever be right for Richard and Melanie?
Set in the twilight years of Celtic Tiger Ireland, Look into the Eye takes readers on a journey through the mystical fjords of Norway and the balmy Pacific Ocean, inviting them to share in the magic of a close encounter with whales in the wild.
The author will be donating half of her royalties from 'Look into the Eye' to organisations dedicated to the protection and conservation of whales and dolphins around the world, and to youth mental health charities in Ireland.
