Rosanna Davison has always known that her father Chris de Burgh was born in Argentina, but now she uncovers the poverty that made the family flee to the New World 150 years ago. Following her de Burgh roots takes her from a surprising Dublin hotspot to Normandy and the Bayeux Tapestry, and a breakfast conversation with her mother leads her to discover great ancestral artistry... But it's the story of her Grandfather (and Chris' dad) which all of a sudden turns into a James Bond adventure, with espionage, Albanian revolutionaries and an attempted coup. And all the time, the final twist was right under Rosanna's nose.
