Aurelie

In 1967, when Roland Haynes arrives in the Channel Island of Alderney to write his first novel, there's a story waiting for him. A ghostly encounter sets him on a search for Aurelie, an island girl who went missing during the Nazi Occupation. Together with Louis Ferrier, Aurelie's boyfriend from the past, Roland unravels the story of a beautiful and courageous young woman who paid the price of defying the Nazis.
In Book Two Aurelie's daughter Jacquine takes up the story, telling of her life in the post-war world and how it can also destroy beauty, as the war destroyed her mother's.
Set mainly on the wild, sea-swept island of Alderney, this romance combines fact, fiction and the supernatural to create a tragic love story and a chilling warning of how human power can destroy not only nature's beauty but that of the human spirit.
