This is the story of how neutral Ireland offered a lifeline to hundreds of survivors from the Battle of the Atlantic in the Second World War. Many merchant navy ships during the war were attacked and sunk, and their surviving crews left adrift on the hostile Atlantic Ocean in a desperate struggle for survival. For the fortunate ones sanctuary was found along Ireland's rugged Atlantic shores, where the local people took these men from the sea into their homes and cared for them without any consideration of their nationality or allegiances to any of the belligerent nations.

Austrálsky autor Mark McShane sa preslávil dielom „Seance on a Wet Afternoon“, ktoré inšpirovalo film i operu. McShane, ktorý prvé tri dekády svojho života prežil cestovaním po svete, sa napokon usadil na ostrove Malorka, kde sa pustil do písania fikcie. Jeho tvorba zahŕňala satirické diela, napínavé romány a kriminálnu fikciu, často oživenú svojskými postavami, ako bol inšpektor Norman Pink a špión Appleton Porter. Pod pseudonymom Marc Lovell zachytil neobvyklé dobrodružstvá Portera, čím preukázal svoju všestrannosť v žánroch.
