It's Ireland's 1995 divorce referendum and things are hotting up on UCG's campus. Alison Lennon's feminist radio show is on the front line, taking a lot of flak from the college's large body of Christian youth activists. The referendum won, Alison decides to go for broke and uses the show to further the pro-choice argument. Things escalate from crank calls to beatings to vandalism to death threats as the pro-life lobby pushes for the show's removal. Then Alison disappears and her body is found on a piece of waste ground near the River Corrib. Her killer is never found.
20 years on and her producer, Fergus Connolly, finds a sick Facebook page in her name. Is her killer thumbing his nose at the world? Fergus revisits his past, that turbulent, hedonistic six months spent behind the sound desk and falling in love with Alison. The problem is there's no shortage of suspects. From lecturers to members of her feminist discussion group to one-night stands, Alison had a plethora of lovers, each vying for their moment in the sun with the beautiful, intelligent and ambitious young woman. Has the trail gone cold or can Fergus piece together the fragments of a 20-year old puzzle?
