Limestone

A fabulous multi-levelled novel, shortlisted for the Montana NZ Book Awards.

Clare Lacey is on a quest. In Ireland to attend an art history conference, she sets out to find her father who walked out one day to buy a packet of cigarettes when she was a child, and disappeared. She is urged on her way by chance encounters: with a woman in a high tower, a blind man at a crossroads, a singer whose song she does not understand ... Clues lie all around on a labyrinth of walls — but the final clue lies deep within.

With Irish roots and a nod to the Irish classic, The Year of the Hiker by John B. Keane, this is a contemporary novel about inheritance, belief, art, love ... and limestone.
