Jumping in the puddles

Claire Allan

When Detta O'Neill returns to Donegal, she is determined to make a difference. Bringing together four lone parents for a support group, she tries her best to build bridges and forge friendships.

Niamh's dream of a perfect life in the country was cut cruelly short with the death of her husband Seán. Can she find her way again without the man she never thought could hurt her?

Ruth was left high and dry when her husband ran off with a younger woman. But could his desertion have been a blessing in disguise?

Liam doesn’t think so. His wife is the younger woman in question and he would do anything to win her back.

Which leaves teen mum Ciara. Everyone is just dying to know who the father of her child is, but does she have a reason for keeping her secret to herself?

Apart from being parents, can the group find anything in common? Can they find happiness and confidence again? And can Detta really make the difference she wants to make?
