![]() ![]() Lucy bemoans the move and dreams of the ocean view and the home she had grown to love. Captain Gault decides to move the family to England. One day, the miscreants approach with hostility, and he opens fire, shooting a boy in the shoulder. We meet Captain Gault, Lucy's father, who facilitates the martial law after arsonists set the Protestants's homes on fire. Loyalist Protestants are caught in the cross-fire so to speak, between the IRA (Irish Catholics who don't like Protestants), and the British army who doesn't really like Irish folks. She is an Anglo-Irish girl who lives with her father and mother as an only child. Lucy is only a child in 1921 when the Irish War of Independence begins.
