A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Connected by a mysterious dragonfly brooch, two courageous women face and meet their own unique—yet interwoven—personal challenges and victories. Modern day 53 year old Cynthia Marshall battles the scars of a critical mother and a facial birthmark. Can she reclaim her life and find love? Can an incestuous relationship and suspicion of murder propel her into intimacy, love and sexuality? Alternate chapters tell the story of 13th Century Margrett Ussex, a spunky 14 year old who defies social constraints of her time. She loves the wrong man and is banished to a convent where ingenious sisters assuage years of enduring a cruel Mother Superior. Will a monk in disguise, a dawn murder, and a King’s bastard save her? And what does the dragonfly mean to each of them? How does it transform their lives and its own?
