When a town in the South West of Ireland is earmarked for a Norwegian-owned offshore wind farm, it’s not just the scenery that’s under pressure. Kate Ryan is on the verge of a lucrative promotion and a move to her company’s HQ in Oslo until her employer, NorksVentus, adds a last-minute caveat – a final assignment in Ireland. She must go undercover in the West Cork town of Carrigeen to quash local objections against the company’s offshore wind farm. However, Kate has a personal (and complicated) history with the town, one that she’s not so keen to revisit. Arriving in Carrigeen with her son Conor, Kate quickly realises that NorskVentus underestimated the level of anti-windfarm ire.
