Dismantling Mr Doyle

James Ryan

On the surface the Doyles are the archetypal happy Irish family loving secureand tradtional. They all have their small rebellions but somehow power remains in the hands of Mr Doyle a benign patriarch controlling all their lives. But in the world outside the old order is being dismantled and the traditional roles the Doyles have always accepted are finally being challenged. Right at the heart of the Doyle household threatening their own miniature household sits a revelation that will throw them unwillingly and inexorably into conflict.
