�ber diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

A trilogy of epic historical adventure complete in one volume.

A family torn apart. A king with an iron fist.

Will their faith, love and loyalty be strong enough to help them survive war, persecution and a cruel separation?

France, 1685. Jeanne is the wife of a wealthy merchant, but now she risks losing everything. Louis XIV’s soldiers will stop at nothing to convert the country’s Huguenot "heretics" to the "true" faith, yet Jeanne and Jacob hold fast to their principals of liberty of conscience.

But will the punishment for their defiance be more than they can bear?

If Jeanne and Jacob can’t find a way to evade the soldiers’ clutches, their family will face a fate worse than poverty and imprisonment. They may never see each other again…

As Jacob becomes an indentured servant in America and Jeanne earns a meager living in Switzerland, a sudden disruption in European politics leaves their chance of a bittersweet homecoming more doubtful than ever…

Will the Delpech family survive the years of war, piracy and persecution to reunite at last?

You’ll adore this brilliantly researched historical saga, because everyone loves heart-warming tales of family loyalty and a fight for survival against the odds.

�ber die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Paul C.R. Monk has worked as a linguist, teacher and script writer. It was while working as a script writer that in 2014 he published his first novel which he wrote for his three sons. Strange Metamorphosis won the Literary Classics Eloquent Quill award. He has since staged a couple of plays, and has been busy completing his historical fiction serial set in the 17th century. The Huguenot Chronicles, which includes, Merchants of Virtue, Voyage of Malice and Land of Hope, has involved many years of research, which, says Paul, in turn has meant having a great excuse to holiday in some amazing places! The trilogy takes you from King Louis's France to the Caribbean, and from London to colonial New York, not to mention all the places in between.
