Summer has a magic all its own.

When Portia sets out for a visit with her cousin Julian, she expects fun and adventure of the usual kind. But this summer is different. On their first day exploring, Portia and Julian discover an enormous boulder with a mysterious message, a swam choked with weeds and quicksand, and on the far side of the swamp... a ghost town. Once, the swamp was a splendid lake, and the fallen houses were a resort community. Although the lake is long gone and the resort faded away, the houses still hold a secret: two people who have never gone-away lake... and who can tell the story of what happened there.

The audio of the million-selling book - Pete McCarthy's hilarious journey in search of his Irish roots.

McCarthy's tale of his hilarious trip around Ireland has gained thousands of fans all over the world.

Pete was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father and spent happy summer holidays in Cork. Years later, reflecting on the many places he has visited as a travel broadcaster, Pete admits that he feels more at home in Ireland than anywhere. To find out whether this is due to rose-coloured spectacles or to a deeper tie with the country of his ancestors, Pete sets off on a trip around Ireland and discovers that it has changed in surprising ways.
