Di ritorno a Belfast dopo una lunga assenza, per partecipare al funerale del padre. Catherine McKenna, una giovane compositrice, ricorda esattamente perché se n'è andata: le claustrofobiche intimità dell'enclave cattolica, la madre meticolosa e assillante e le tensioni pervadenti di una città in guerra con se stessa. Ricorda un periodo più innocente, quando i tamburi Lambeg dei Loyalists suonavano misteriosi ed eccitanti; ricorda la sua relazione in frantumi con l'ubriaco e violento Dave, ricorda il figlio che aveva avuto con lui, che l'aspettava a Glasgow. Questo è un romanzo, sul venire a patti con il passato e il potere curativo della musica, GRACE NOTES è il ritorno trionfale di un maestro narratore alla forma lunga: un potente romanzo lirico di grande distinzione.
