Adam Darragh

Adam Darragh is the headman of Glenscar, in his early fifties, and a close friend of Edwin Marlowe. His late wife's name was Brigid. Their daughter's name is Saibh, and their orphaned niece - the daughter of Brigid's twin sister and her husband - is Liadan McKinnon. He has the power of persuasion.

Seamus Darragh, presumably Adam's father, was the former headman of Glenscar, and Adam had an older sister, Moira Darragh, who vanished from Glenscar thirty-five years before the events of A Widow in Waiting.
