Women's fiction book describing the fallout and recovery from an affair and its effect on both families. Two marriages. A bucket full of dreams and a pile of broken hearts. She's not sharing her name. She's been judged enough. She's known as a wife, mother, friend, and to one person-a lover. In a tiny Irish village she runs a business with family friends. Except it doesn't stay only business. In love with a man not her husband, she becomes the other woman, the marriage wrecker, the cheat and the betrayer. When the illicit relationship ends and is discovered, she's stuck between the ruined affair and a crumbling marriage. Jobless and heartbroken she must discover what she can salvage. Will talking to Isobel help pick up the pieces or shatter their lives forever?

Coping with a child's death is traumatic and isolating. A personal and moving story, 'Dear Isobel' tells the truth about the trauma and isolation through the eyes of both parents and shows how, individually, they came to terms with their loss. The only book of its kind, 'Dear Isobel' was written so that other bereaved parents may feel less alone, and to explain to family and friends how they can best offer their support. Advice on bereavement by a liaison sister at The Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street, who helped Georgina and Piers Monckton through Isobel's illness and death, together with an information section containing details of organisations that support the bereaved are also given.

Isobel thinks that she and her family will find their fortune in Canada. But Isobel's mother dies before they even cross the ocean, and other misfortunes follow their every step. Isobel's family and the other Selkirk Settlers are caught in the fur-trading rivalry between the Hudson's Bay Company and the North West Company and cannot even start to build when they do reach their destination. The harsh climate, and escalating threats against the settlers, make it impossible to start a new life. Only through perserverance and help from the local Cree band are Isobel and her family finally able to put down roots in the Red River Valley. Vetted by historical experts, each book in this series contains maps, numerous period illustrations, and an extensive historical note.

Isobel, a widow of a certain age and long-time resident of a small fishing village on the coast of Maine, decides she requires additional income to support her desire for first-class travel. She answers an ad for a hired mercenary to an ex-Mafia don, first testing her homicidal capabilities at home and later, with her niece Jo in tow, moving on to assignments in Montana to dispatch a Japanese harvester of children’s body parts, in Stockholm to remove a Russian anthrax intermediary, and, in Bermuda to “put paid” to an English high-class pimp. She and Jo, of course, savor the fine accommodations and gastronomic rewards of their efforts, but will they receive their comeuppance? And what of the mysterious gentleman who pops up at each of their assignments?
