In 1969, Lily and Nolan Doyle leave Northern Ireland’s Troubles for a secluded life in small-town British Columbia. Their eldest son Daniel pursues hockey dreams while navigating romantic entanglements and the restlessness of youth.

Equal parts coming-of-age and road story, the book follows Daniel from local rinks to stops across Canada, Europe and the US as he learns what identity and adulthood mean beyond the game.

Fans of character-driven fiction and authentic sports scenes will find a layered portrait of family, belonging and personal growth.

  • Themes: immigration, sport, family
  • Settings: Northern Ireland, British Columbia, international
  • Tone: candid, bittersweet, energetic

This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
