9. Reflections of the Past

by Aubrey Howard, Rated B

While poking around on the amazon uk site I discovered that one of my favorite authors Aubrey Howard has a new trilogy out. (1) Reflections of the Past,(2) Distant Images and (3) As the Night Ends that chart the lives and loves of the Goodwill family through the late 1800's to the end of the first world war. So I am treating myself and am ordering one each month. It's not too bad since this trilogy has been out long enough that the books are available from their used book sellers, some of whom ship to the US.

The story beings with Abby Murphy deprived, poor and beautiful being catapulted from a life of misery to one of great richness and a loveless marriage with Noah Goodwill - but love grows and blossoms and the birth of her twin daughters completes her life - albeit the babies have different fathers!

Stay tuned for episode two next month.
