Niall, a zoologist, goes to Northern Ireland under the pretext of studying magpies. What he's researching, in fact, is nothing less than the science of free will, the genetics of fate and destiny. But as he roams the seashore observing the lives of his chosen birds, he becomes increasingly troubled by half-remembered events, by apparently familiar faces, and by the names of people long dead.Niall is drawn into the complex and tightly knit lives of the villagers and into relationships with Edie, an ambitious and beautiful young chef, and with Nadia, the exotic daughter of the local squire. As he becomes more obsessed with his magpies, and with Edie and Nadia, his grip on reality starts to weaken and fragments of memory from his lost past return. On the brink of a major new scientific discovery, he finally becomes aware of the magnitude of his loss.
