Irish Twins
Born within the same twelve months, Mary and Fern Piper are ‘Irish twins’ as their mother proudly declares. But when their father leaves home and they move to a new village, the girls encounter another pair of almost-twins – the Beak brothers. When Jim Beak marries her sister, Fern thinks it’s only a matter of time before she in turn marries his brother – but suddenly the sister’s symmetry of lives is broken beyond repair.
