Plot summary
Ballymoran is a small Irish town, and the Cassidys are the family who come home to find a stranger in a red leather suit and helmet unconscious on their living room floor, next to the drinks cabinet. They decide he must have come from outer space. When he wakes, the man, an escaped convict and a drinker fresh out of rehab, does nothing to correct them and takes the name Zonad. The villagers and the Cassidys make him welcome, Mary and her teenage daughter Jenny especially, and there is beer and a house in it for him. He had intended to refuse the attention.
