"The Boy That Never Was" is an adaptation of the Sunday Times' best-selling inaugural masterpiece from the quill of the esteemed Irish wordsmith, Karen Perry. It weaves a harrowing tapestry set in the sun-kissed Essaouira of Morocco, where a magnitude of tragedy unfolds as a three-year-old innocent vanishes amidst the tremors of a catastrophic earthquake. In a desperate race against time, the father hurtles towards their once welcoming abode, only to find it reduced to a heap of debris, with his beloved son nowhere in sight.Years roll by, and across the vast expanse of thousands of miles, in the emerald embrace of Dublin, a flicker of hope rekindles. The father's gaze alights upon a cherubic six-year-old amidst the throng of anonymity, and in that moment, his heart recognizes what his eyes cannot deny — the boy, the very image of his lost son, has seemingly returned from the whispers of the past.
