Join 'Legend Seekers' Barry Fitzgerald formerly of Ghost Hunters
International (GHI) on SyFy and Cormac Strain as they explore the
islands ancient and not so ancient history exploring and examining
its myths & Legends. Using historical accounts they will
venture to areas in Ireland not only above ground but below it in
an attempt to discover the truth, a truth, which sometimes does not
want to be discovered.
Best known for her acclaimed continuations of Jane Austen's Pride
and Prejudice, Dawkins' latest book is set firmly in the present
day, and in her home town. "I have spent so much time writing in
England's Regency period, the early 19th century, that I decided to
explore the present day for a change," she said. Described as "a
love song to a very special island, and an ode to women of a
certain age" this "romance for grownups," is set in New York,
London and Athens, as well as Key West. Dawkins maintains that her
latest book will be best enjoyed on a beach under a palm tree, with
a cold drink in one hand.
She has beauty, poise and intelligence, a diamond of the first
water, a prize of great value, but she is not happy. Lady Davina
Woodburn feels totally uprooted. A country girl at heart, she is a
better judge of horse-flesh than any man, enjoys the wild freedom
of her rural life, and is not afraid to attend the births of the
farm animals, or patch up a wound in either man or beast.
Nineteen-year-old Davina feels quite out of place in London. She
wishes to be back where she feels she belongs, certainly not on the
London marriage mart. Had her aunt not insisted upon it to her
father, she would still be back home... then she would never have
met and lost the man of her dreams. In One Perfect Afternoon, Jane
Dawkins (author of the acclaimed Pride and Prejudice continuations,
Letters from Pemberley, and More Letters from Pemberley) tells
another sparkling tale of another spirited young woman. Like
Elizabeth Bennet, Lady Davina Woodburn sometimes ruffles the
feathers of those around her, and her independent mind is often at
odds with society in the English Regency period in which she lives.
"One Perfect Afternoon is a wonderfully told story and will touch
your heart...Jane Dawkins] has again brought style and grace into
the telling, along with vivid scenery and lush costuming...one
Regency romance you won't want to miss." -- Rose Brungard,
