Introduction

Mick Dowd is the gravedigger in Leenane, a village which sees its fair share of violence and squabbling. Due to overcrowding, it is his job to annually disinter the old bones from their graves to make way for the newly departed. The longest any bones can remain in peace is seven years. Coincidentally, it just happens that seven years ago Mick was involved in a car crash which killed his wife. Whilst foul play was never proved, the residents of Leenane have always suspected that he staged the crash to cover up her murder. With her remains next on the exhumation list, will Mick be digging up secrets as well as skeletons this year?
