Blending memoir with social history, Clair Wills movingly explores the holes in the fabric of modern Ireland, and in her own family story.
"Clair Wills shines a brilliant, unsparing light into the dark recesses of her family's history--and the history of Ireland. Missing Persons is a stunningly eloquent exploration of how truth-telling, secret-keeping, and outright lies are part of all family stories--indeed, the stories that unite all communities--and how truths, secrets and lies can both protect and destroy us." --Jeannette Walls, author of The Glass Castle and Hang the Moon
