Voices of Summer
At a scenic 19th-century Austrian resort, rivalries flourish, passion ignites, and love conquers all. Every summer, the Hochhauser Operetta Company faced the fearsome task of finding someone to sing opposite brilliant, monstrous Karl Gesner. Can Therese Aschmann return from a 20-year exile and tame this nasty beast?
The Marigold Field
The Marigold Fieldis the story of poor, proud, high-spirited people...people whose roots were in the farming country of southern England...in the bawdy and exuberant streets of the East End. Jonathan Whitman, his cousin Myra, Anne-Louise Pritchard and the enormous Pritchard clan to which she belonged, saw the changing era and incredible events of a passing age - an age of great poverty and great wealth, of straw boaters, feather boas, and the Music Hall... And above all The Marigold Fieldis a story of one woman's consuming love...of a jealous obsession that threatened to destroy the very man she adored...
Csardas
This great bestseller was compared with GONE WITH THE WIND when first published in 1975. CSARDAS – taken from the name of the Hungarian national dance – follows the fortunes of the enchanting Ferenc sisters from their glittering beginnings in aristocratic Hungary, through the traumas of two World Wars. From the dazzling elegance of coming-out balls, feudal estates and a culture steeped in romance, to terror and starvation in the concentration camps – no story could be more dramatic than that of Eva and Amalia Ferenc, whose fate it is to be debutantes when the shot which killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo plunged Europe into the First World War. Their story is enthralling, tragic, romantic – and absolutely unputdownable.

The Summer of the Barshinskeys
'Although the story of the Barshinskeys, which became our story too, stretched over many summers and winters, that golden time of 1902 was when our strange involved relationship began, when our youthful longing for the exotic took a solid and restless hold upon us...' It is at this enchanted moment that The Summer of the Barshinskeysbegins.A beautifully told, compelling story that moves from a small Kentish village to London, and from war-torn St Petersburg to a Quaker relief unit in the Volga provinces, it is an unforgettable story of two families.
