Orna Ross je írska autorka, ktorá sa vo svojej tvorbe venuje románom aj poézii. Jej diela často skúmajú hlbiny ľudskej kreativity a poslanie umelcov v digitálnom veku. Ross sa snaží sprístupniť možnosti digitálneho publikovania a kreatívneho podnikania ďalším tvorcom, najmä tým z literárnych kruhov.

Izzy Mulcahy is a mother and a woman in love, a writer and a thinker, and the last person anyone would expect to commit murder. After being charged with killing her father, Izzy escapes into the past - her own past and that of the famous Iseult Gonne, after whom she was named and with whom, in a strange way, she identifies.
The narrative intertwines a recent murder with an unresolved crime from the past, creating a complex web of mystery and suspense. As the characters confront the repercussions of both events, they are forced to navigate their intertwined fates, leading to revelations that could alter their futures. Themes of guilt, redemption, and the impact of history on the present are explored, making for a compelling story that examines how the past continues to influence the present.
