Corrupt Church - Much of the story revolves around the church-run Magdalene Laundry system in Ireland, where girls who behaved "immorally" were placed by their families. In the novel, teenage girl Sarah Redmond is locked in a coalshed overnight as a punishment for misbehaviour, and has had her baby taken away from her to be adopted.

Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe - Furlong does not know who his father is. Later in the novel, it is revealed that it might well have been Ned, a labourer working in the house in which Furlong was raised.

Nun Too Holy - The Mother Superior in particular, who subtly threatens to exclude Furlong's children from the convent secondary school if he exposes the mistreatment of Sarah Redmond.
