Otte børn skar engang deres navne ind i stammen på den enorme blodbøg, der stod i skolegården i Shancarrig. Nu er de voksne og har udviklet sig forskelligt, men det var skolen, der formede dem og gjorde dem til det, de er. Barndomstiden i Shancarrig er fyldt med minder, gode såvel som dårlige, og enkelte som ikke tåler dagens lys. Livet i den lille irske landsby er udadtil fredeligt - søvnigt og dræbende kedeligt ville den uregerlige, lidenskabssøgende Nessa Ryan sige. Men ridser man i overfladen, kommer alle mulige uventede ting til syne.

Mellem to unge piger udvikler sig et ubrydeligt venskab, som trods store forskelle i arv og miljø hjælper dem gennem mange genvordigheder hjemme i landsbyen og under studieårene i 1950'ernes Dublin.
