Heartbreak: The Lenka Trilogy, Part 1
1990. Lenka Brett - a smart but unworldly young, Irish teacher - volunteers to deliver aid when the world learns of the horrifying plight of children in Romanian orphanages.
An English naval officer, Captain Simon Syrianus, volunteers to be her co-driver. Together, they join a convoy of humanitarian aid drivers known as the Rogues, the last hope for those in areas where official charities cannot enter.
Lenka falls in love, but when the Rogues become the target mercenaries, tragedy follows, and she discovers her lover is not who he appeared to be.
