Singing Bird by former BBC Northern Ireland reporter Roisin McAuley (Wikipedia) was her debut literary fiction novel, a contemporary personal suspense self-discovery drama set in Ireland involving family and friendship themes, centring around the late-in-life revelation of the protagonist's long-ago given-up-for-adoption daughter, which may or may not have come with sinister motives and lead to the uncovering of unsettling secrets, free courtesy of publisher Crux, who are reprinting it from its 2004 Headline edition.

This is B&N's current Free Fridays selection, and you can see the author's own recommended reading pick over at their dedicated blogpost.

Currently free, probably just through the weekend @ B&N (may also drop in the UK).

Unlikely to show up in other stores; B&N Free Fridays from this imprint haven't in the past and this is probably not going to be the exception.

Description
Twenty-seven years after she adopted her baby in Ireland, Lena Molloy receives a call from the nun who set up the adoption. Sister Monica claims that she wants merely to tie up loose ends in her old age, but Lena becomes frightened that something more threatening lies behind the call, and she sets off on a journey to Ireland, with her best friend, to find her daughter's birth parents.
