About this Book

Print Excerpt

'One of the Carolans from the Hill was killed.'

'Oh God!' 'That's terrible!'

'Lovely girls, the Carolans.' And so on.

The mood was quite different for the remainder of the journey, a mixture of shock and excitement. People couldn't wait to get home to tell their families the news.
