Broken and humiliated by her husband of ten years leaving her unexpectedly, Sophia Meadows muddles through her daily routine-writing computer programs and rarely leaving the house. That is, until an old friend from university shows up on her door with an offer she can't refuse: a chance to get away and heal in the Scottish Highlands of Inverness by flat-sitting. Yet once she arrives, she soon discovers the offer is not what she bargained for: A police surveillance team is watching her every move and a mysterious man is after the contents of a safe hidden in a wall. After a break-in at the apartment, her path collides with DI Marcus Armstrong, the man in charge of the apartment surveillance. Sophia is swept into an investigation of fraud involving her university friend and into a sudden attraction with the handsome DI who finds himself drawn to her even though she's a suspect in his case. With evidence piling up against her and her friend and the attraction between her and Marcus growing stronger, Sophia is forced to confront her broken heart and find a way to clear her name. In a tangled web of secrets and clues, can she and the DI work through their attraction and learn to trust each other in time to stop a criminal and possibly save a life?

Those We Trust

One of the most highly acclaimed Irish comedies of recent years, A Night in November is a hard and humourous look at the Protestant tradition in Northern Ireland. Kenneth McCallister is a dole clerk who tolerates his marriage, his in-laws and Ulster until, on the fateful night in November in Belfast, as the Republic of Ireland qualifies against Northern Ireland for the World Cup, he finds himself watching the sectarian hatred of the crowd rather than the match. A Night in November follows Kenneth McCallister on his rebellious journey as he decides to travel to New York to join the joyous caravan of supporters following the Republic's soccer team. As he crosses the tarmac at Dublin airport, he looks back at his entirely predictable existence, roars with laughter and boards a flight into the unknown. Not a play about football but about one man who suddenly realises that he can have a hand in his own destiny.

A Night in November

A small farming village in County Kerry, Ireland, where a new Hollywood film is being shot, serves as the setting for this hilarious and affecting comedy.

Hi my name is Marie Jones and to get started I will tell you a little about me prior to the stalker. The reason for this is so that you understand me and the sometimes not easily understood reasoning of how I have handled certain situations in my life. My upbringing plays a large part in certain decisions I have made as an adult. I don't know why I've always had the issue of placing others happiness before my own. I have a problem hurting people even if I am left hanging unhappy in the balance. At times it is so beyond me how one can misunderstand whether by choice or perception what another is saying or meaning. A person can tell another that they love them and mean it with all their heart and be understood in a way that another did not mean it. On the other hand one can love another and dislike the other's actions and it doesn't deter the love they have for the other in the slightest. They perhaps just wish situations would change, that which turns out would make for a perfect situation or relationship. By the same token one can tell another they don't love them, nor or they attracted to them and they think the other is mentally insane and need to be chemically balanced with medication. Why on God's green earth would anyone want to be in a relationship with a person that don't like or love them??? I have lost weight that I cannot afford to lose and hair that I am ashamed to tell anyone about. Thank God for weave!!!!!! Stress is a battle that I don't need or want.
