I am thrilled that a wonderful review of my latest novel Tamarisk: Love and
War in France has appeared as the Editor’s Choice in the French magazine for
English speakers in France THE CONNEXION www.connexionfrance The
monthly on-line and print magazine has one million subscribers and there are
also daily updates online. The Editor writes:
This tale from WW2 deals with the tangled lives of Pierre, who parachuted
into France as an SOE agent, and Rebecca, the brave local woman who aids
and abets him on the farm owned by her grandfather...
The farm where they hide out has a tamarisk orchard and this becomes a
metaphor for the survival and renaissance of during and after the war years.
The plot sweeps through Northern France, Britain and Germany as Pierre
searches for his missing love…
…far from being an easy read or a light romance, this is a gripping read which
deals with the worst side of human nature as well as the best side, when people
behave with kindness and compassion to complete strangers…”
