Book description
Anselm Andros has always thought he had a normal life - confidante to
his mother, Maria, confessor to his stepfather, Leo, a man haunted by
the secrets of his past, and support to his sister Jasmine. But when
the political landscape of Malonia starts to shift, this unassuming
family begin to unravel.
Even though they have spent the past fifteen years leading a quiet
life, Maria and Leo's actions are forever linked to the turbulent
history of Malonia and its parallel world, modern-day England. The
voices from the past still echo in the present and Anselm must pull
all the pieces together - whatever the cost.
