This fascinating, (mostly true) story is based on historical facts and weaves together the threads of greed, lust, honour and brutality at the dawn of the Industrial age.
The seventeenth century of Germany, France and England is a time for love — love of power and territory above all. Beautiful Eléonore is deeply in love with George William, heir of a German duchy, and he with her. But he hides a secret that makes a legal marriage impossible.
George William’s younger brother, Ernest, and his own bride must block George William’s marriage too. If George William never has any male heirs by a proper and legal marriage, then Ernest and his offspring will inherit George William’s lands and holdings. The brothers’ plots against each other are only the half of it. | |  | | Unforgivable
Unforgivable is the story of a teenage girl and a young nun caught up in the great religious and social upheaval brought on by Vatican II, and a thriving adoption industry driven by society’s fierce disapproval of unmarried mothers.
span id="freeText4655480557088527222" style="">Seventeen-year-old Sylvia, like many unmarried teenage mothers across Australia in 1966, is forced to wait for the birth of her child in one of the homes and hospitals run by the Catholic Church. St Joseph’s Hospital, managed by the Sisters of St Anthony, has never had a girl walk out the front gate without first leaving behind her baby. But the sisters had never met Sylvia, defiant and headstrong and determined to keep her child./span>
