In World War II Florence, Italy, two sisters trapped by the Nazi Occupation have to make life-altering decisions that will reverberate for decades... and collide with a present day murder investigation. Florence, Italy, 1943 Two sisters, Isabella and Caterina Cammaccio, find themselves surrounded by terror and death; and with Italy trapped under the heel of a brutal Nazi occupation, a Partisan resistance movement rises up. Soon Isabella and Caterina will test their wits and deepest beliefs as never before. As the winter grinds on, they will be forced to make the most difficult choices of their lives. Florence, Italy, 2011 In the present day, senior policeman Alessandro Pallioti agrees to oversee a murder investigation after it emerges the victim was once a Partisan hero. When the case begins to unravel, Pallioti finds himself working to uncover a crime lost in the twilight of war, the consequences of which are as deadly today as they were over sixty years ago.
From Lucretia Grindle, author of Villa Triste, comes a novel of lives lost and found, as intricate and mysterious as the Italian streets where the story's secrets begin. When American student Kristin Carson enrolls in a study abroad program in Florence, she's sure it will be the best year of her life, a chance to explore art, poetry, and romance in the arms of her new Italian boyfriend. But days before her parents arrive in Florence to celebrate her eighteenth birthday, Kristin disappears. Senior Detective Alessandro Pallioti and his young prot g Enzo Saenz are called to investigate. At first they believe she's simply run off for a romantic weekend and forgotten to tell her parents. But when Kristin's step-mother, Anna, also goes missing, Pallioti and Saenz suspect something much more sinister has happened. As they deepen their investigation they discover that Anna Carson is not who she appears to be, and Kristin's new boyfriend isn't just another local Lothario, but one of the most infamous--and dangerous--men in Italy. To find Kristin, Pallioti and Saenz must first find Anna and uncover the secrets she's kept buried for a lifetime. To do so, they must wade through the past, revisiting times and places most Italians would rather forget, and walk in the footsteps of the dead.

My poems, called inspirational by many have blessed and uplifted me as much as I pray they have done and will continue to do so, for the many who will read them. When the words start flowing from my head and I sit to write, I trust God for the right words to bless the individual(s) that will receive them. Most of them were written in one sitting as I opened my heart to my Heavenly Father, sometimes in grief, sadness, heaviness of heart, joy, or thankfulness. I pray that God keeps me humble to hear His voice and answer His call to continue to be a blessing to those I meet each day and that these poems will bless millions of readers.
