Return from Exile
Abused, betrayed, and abandoned by the men in her family, Annie Laurie Balfour finds herself in a foreign country with no resources, and her life in jeopardy. Annie’s only hope is a shadowy figure from the world of international espionage, a woman thought long dead. Who is this will-o-the-wisp; is she savior, or is she assassin?

About the author
Prudence MacLeod
104 books93 followersOrdinary people are capable of remarkable feats given the right set of circumstances and these days, maybe more than ever, we all need more everyday heros.
The stories I love best are ones in which I could see at least a part of myself and that is actually the starting point of many of my stories. I am an observer. I love to people watch! I can’t help but notice what makes an ordinary person stand out to me and I can’t resist building stories around those unique character sketches.
The stories I least like are ones where the “hero” remains tormented and without resolution even at the end of a book. If I wanted reality, I’d have watched TV. Good fiction should entertain, and have a momentum of its own that carries rather than drags the reader along. My stories are intended to transport the reader away from the stresses of their day-to-day lives, and to sweep them up into a different world where people much like themselves overcome challenges and have remarkable adventures.
My goal is to write stories that inspire people to be their own everyday hero; to imagine new possibilities for themselves and perhaps change the course of their own story. I invite you to join me on the adventure.
