Killarney Blues, Colin O'sullivan, Francois Guerif, Ludivine Bouton-Kelly

The picturesque town of Killarney, in southwest Ireland, may seem like the ideal place to enjoy some much-needed sunshine, but the town is feeling blue. Bernard Dunphy, an eccentric coachman and guitarist, longs for unrequited love and must cope with a mother and a horse both ailing; his friend Jack gets entangled in a violent crime; and a trio of girlfriends get caught in the web of their own misdeeds. The novel oscillates between darkness and light as its protagonists struggle with their inner demons. Can friendship, love, and music save their tormented souls?
