A Triumph of Love
The daughter of an American serviceman and an Irish GI bride, Heather Marshall was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1952. Her mother had not wanted to stay in South Carolina with her husband and returned to Belfast pregnant with her daughter. So her daughter grew up not knowing her father through her youth and into her teens through the troubles the province later knew. Heather and her husband met in 1975 and married the next year. Their son was born in 1980. Their joy was sadly overshadowed a few days after he was born when Heather had a severe post-partum manic depressive episode, which resulted in the authorities taking their son into care. The following year was fraught with difficulties for the new parents. They were constantly trying to fight for the custody of their son. There were court appearances, constant monitoring by social workers, and after a year had passed, they were told that their son would remain in foster care until he was eighteen. Determined that this would not be the end, they devised a way that they would, after all, be a family, with God’s help. Their answer would lie across the Atlantic, in South Carolina.
The Thorn Tree
The lives of three generations of women intertwine in the Scottish stone cottage of Agatha, a spinster aunt with more than a helping of spunk. For Agatha's niece Margaret, born in the States but with her own secret connection to the cottage, packing her resentful daughter Hope off to Scotland the summer after her parents have split seems like the cleanest solution to the kind of messy emotions Margaret hates. Margaret spends her summer finding out who she is other than a wife and mother — and she likes it. Hope has to reinvent herself and her vision of her dad, tricky seas to navigate even without trying to figure out how to eat a bannock and remember which way to look when skateboarding across the road. And gentle Aunt Agatha wonders what would have happened if she'd made room in her life for romance and adventure, instead of just for family. Told from the perspective of each woman, The Thorn Tree weaves together the complexities of love and life for each generation, and shows the strength of family ties.

As borders close and rumours of death camps swirl, Audrey makes the life-changing decision to join the covert resistance and risk everything to protect her loved ones. Alnwick, 2010 After a tragic accident, Kate Mercer packs her things and moves to work at a guest house near the Scottish border. Instead of finding solace, Kate becomes entangled in the secrets of her mysterious elderly proprietor... Inspired by true stories of courageous women and the German resistance during WWII, this is a captivating story about the unbreakable bonds of friendship and family.
