Her grandfather, the outcast god Odran plots to destroy Talamh, and now all must unite to defeat his dark forces. There will be losses and sorrows, betrayal and bloodshed. But through it, Breen Siobhan Kelly will take the next step on the journey to becoming all that she was born to be."--Publisher.

      Devätnásťročná Annabelle Worthingtonová žila celý život obklopená láskou a blahobytom, ale v jeden aprílový deň v roku 1912 sa všetko zmenilo. Pri stroskotaní Titanicu sa jej svet zrútil ako domček z karát. Napriek žiaľu nachádza v sebe silu a vrhne sa do dobrovoľníckej práce v nemocnici. Odjakživa mala rada medicínu a táto vášeň nakoniec predznamenala cestu, ktorou sa vybrala. Annabelle sa zaľúbi do staršieho muža, ktorý bol dlho jej dobrým priateľom, a manželstvo vyzerá spočiatku idylicky, no keď jej manžel po dvoch rokoch odhalí svoje tajomstvo, spôsobí jej bezhraničný žiaľ. Ich rozvod vyvolá škandál, ktorý ju vyženie z New Yorku do Európy zmietanej vojnou. V priekopníckej poľnej nemocnici vedenej ženami nájde Annabelle svoje životné poslanie a rozhodne sa študovať medicínu a zachraňovať ľudské životy. Po skončení vojny si v Paríži otvorí ordináciu a sama vychováva dcérku. Jej minulosť je takmer zabudnutá... kým sa jedného dňa neprizná so svojím ťažkým osudom mužovi, ktorého ľúbi a ktorý tvrdí, že aj on ju miluje... V najnovšom románe Danielle Steel je množstvo historických detailov a Annabelle Worthingtonová patrí medzi jej najfascinujúcejšie hrdinky. Táto dobrá žena dlhé roky statočne bojuje proti ťažkému osudu a nakoniec z boja vyjde víťazne. Jej príbeh je oslavou života, dôstojnosti a odvahy.

      Ted Wallace is an old, sour, womanising, cantankerous, whisky-sodden beast of a failed poet and drama critic, but he has his faults too. Fired from his newspaper, months behind on his alimony payments and disgusted with a world that undervalues him, Ted seeks a few months repose and free drink at Swafford Hall, the country mansion of his old friend Lord Logan. But strange things have been going on at Swafford. Miracles. Healings. Phenomena beyond the comprehension of a mud-caked hippopotamus like Ted. With this funny and deliciously readable novel, Stephen Fry takes his place as one of the most talented comic novelists of his generation.
