This is the story of two women, separated by time and place, but inextricably linked. Allie Ryder is mother to 6 year old Ben and wife to Patrick, leading a comfortably affluent life in modern day London. She has had a troubled childhood, but she believes that, at last, she has found safety and security in marriage and motherhood. Her life seems idyllic, but her wish for financial independence and the return of her mother, Abigail, precipitate a series of events that slowly begin to unravel the life she has so carefully built. Ailsa Mackinnon, is living a harsh existence in 1890's St Kilda, an isolated and bleak Scottish archipelago where the threat of starvation is constant and the inhabitants must eke out a living from the sheep and the seabirds and what they can grow from the barren soil. Ailsa can have no control over the events that will mould her life, and, grown up, she must make the toughest decision she has ever had to make. As Allie starts to experience echoes from a past that she cannot know, she is led to discover, finally, the extraordinary life of Ailsa Mackinnon, which in turn inspires her to come to terms with her own experiences of abandonment and betrayal.

If Montana had known what she would be confronting that night, she would never have sedated Max. Lottery winner and venture capitalist Montana Dayton is on vacation, sorely needing a break from her business.

Montana's getting creepy feelings from something or someone on her property and Rose, her neighbor, is bringing new "friends" into her life. If that wasn't enough to ruin Montana's vacation, the dangerously attractive Max surely would! Max has the uncanny ability to show up when he's not wanted. What Montana doesn't realize is Max knows what's out in the woods and it's his job to find it. Max knows Montana can sense it even though she cannot see it and has decided that she needs to be protected from the unseen danger, but who will protect Montana from Max?

....and sat down beside her, the final volumn of a trilogy is a tale of life''s circles. We follow Samantha and her best friend on their adventures as they begin new chapters and relive some of the past. Samanth, orphaned, cared for by a succession of foster parents, changes careers and locales, learning, one can only hope the meaning of the word, ''serendipity''. The reader meets Mafia dons, past and present, and wannabees, a medical examiner, a budding terrorist, and Televison broadcasters. A highly unlikely story----but then, the best tales hardly ever make much sense.
