Bøker av Marilyn Parkes-Seddon

On the beautiful island of Guernsey is an art gallery by the name of La Perle. Owners Antoinette and James are both privileged and delighted when famous artist Raphael Harcourt-Smythe offers to hold an exhibition at the gallery, with the centrepiece being his painting Madrigal. As the exhibition progresses, La Perle transforms into a place of mystery and intrigue, and when romance becomes entangled with murder, it is clear that things are not all as they first seem...Marilyn Parkes-Seddon's gripping thriller is enhanced by her vivid descriptions of the beauty of Guernsey, which contrast with echoes from the Second World War, during which the Channel Islands were occupied by German forces.

Hoping to find a way to move on from the sadness that threatens to overwhelm her life, young widow, Betsy Abbot, moves to Alderney to manage a small bistro. There she meets and falls in love with charismatic Guernsey yachtsman, Allain Laubert, but once again Betsy's life is devastated by sudden tragedy.
