Produktbeschreibung
Stones Corner, Light, set-in war-torn Ulster and in London in the early 1980s, continues the sensational cliff-hanging series of thrillers, Turmoil and Darkness. Caitlin McLaughlin, determined to live an everyday life safe in England, still grieves the loss of her sister and parents back home in Derry. Although she has met a man who offers her a gilded new lifestyle, she cannot dismiss thoughts of her lost love, James Henderson. After inheriting his uncle's shirt factory, Rocola, James pledges to carry on the battle for the business's survival - even though this traps him in a loveless marriage to a manipulative heiress. Meanwhile, the toxic impact of the sectarian conflict continues to be felt. A merciless kidnap plot is hatched by the PIRA that will touch the lives of both Caitlin and James, bringing them together again at a pivotal moment. With the women's movement working across the sectarian divide to bring about peace and a growing drift towards the ballot box over the Armalite, Light captures the change in the air in the province. It is a time of hope in the lives of its war-weary people. But no one has foreseen the shattering events in London that will soon threaten their dreams for a brighter future...
Autorenporträt
Jane Buckley was born in Derry/ Londonderry, Northern Ireland, in the late 60s and is the author of the Stones Corner Volume 1, Turmoil, Volume 2, Darkness and Volume 3 Light. All part of a tetralogy, with the next books to be Light and Hope. Aged 17, she moved to London, where she lived and worked for over twenty-five years before moving to Nice, France. Along with her husband John, they finally returned home in 2017 and lived in Donegal. Over recent years, the couple recognised that many of the people they'd been fortunate enough to meet on their travels worldwide didn't understand why or how the conflict here in the North of Ireland began and why it continued for three decades. Jane found this particularly frustrating and decided to take it upon herself to inform them and others by writing a historical fiction series based on her own childhood experiences and around events from this horrific period in Ireland's history. While we need to move on from "The Troubles" as a country, we must never forget how and why they occurred and should continue to embrace the healing and reconciliation process.
