Produktbeschreibung
An ambitious young woman who dreams of leaving her small town to follow her dreams learns the heartbreak of reckless love. As a young woman trapped in the confines of her small Newfoundland fishing village, sixteen-year-old Julie dreams of someday making her way out into the world and becoming a journalist. The daughter she gave up at birth must learn the same lesson, but will she follow in her mother's footsteps and give up her dreams? What happens when a daughter, given up at birth, makes the same tragic mistake as the mother she never knew? In 1950 Julie was deceived in love and had to give up not only the child of that union, but her dreams of escaping her small fishing village to become a journalist. Twenty years later, Marina, too, is deceived in love and has to forfeit her child, but dreams are not to be thwarted the second time around. The only refuge for young teen girls at that time was an old plantation pavilion called The Fold located in Nova Scotia. Hidden away on acres of lush green grass and surrounded by the wonder of the sea, The Fold holds the mystery and secrets of those who suffered emotions of forfeiting their infant and the suffering that remains within their veil of secrecy.

Autorenporträt
Margaret's desire to write began at a young age, writing stories from her imagination. In between raising a family, Margaret Franceschini also devoted time in writing poems which were published in various local books and on poetry sites. She managed to continue her education at the local college, then began working with children with Autism. One summer while vacationing with her family and watching children running through the sand, she remembered her summer vacations as a child with her family and a little boy who would look for her each weekend. This simple act of playing in the sand, digging with seashells and the memory of him running with her to the shore and back to the sand gave her the idea and title of her novel, Seashells.
