Seven years after the horrific finale of her marriage to Greg, Stephanie Harper is rebuilding her shattered life. Back in her beloved Eden, reunited with her adored children, she finds happiness with Dan Marshall, the brilliant surgeon who made her whole again.
But the strains of running a multi-million dollar business and coping with Sarah and Dennis in their turbulent passage to maturity begin to take their toll. There are sinister shadows on the horizon, and with Jilly’s release from prison, the sunlit Australian harmony of Eden comes under terrifying threat once more.
Rosalind Miles is an author born and raised in England and now living in both Los Angeles and Kent, England. She has written both works of fiction and non-fiction. As a child, Miles suffered from polio, and had to undergo several months of treatment. After being accepted to a junior women's college, Miles acquired a working knowledge of Latin and Greek, along with developing her life-long love of Shakespeare. At seventeen, she was promoted to St. Hilda's College, Oxford where she studied English literature, Anglo-Saxon, Middle English, Latin and French. She obtained five degrees in all, ending with a Ph.D. from the Shakespeare Institute at the University of Birmingham.
Miles later on became interested in jurisprudence, which resulted in her sitting as a lay magistrate in the English criminal and family courts, and eventually on the bench in a superior court in Coventry. She is also a regular commentator on the BBC, on Canadian Radio, and in The Times.
Return to Eden Bitter Legacy, has been in my bookshelf for a while now, l actually found this book in front of a house that was going to be thrown out. I am so glad l grabbed it, and read it. This book was so good l could not put it down. The storyline is so strong and so powerful, it is such a page turner.
The characters are all a stand out, it is a soap opera on paper, at its best, loved it !
Written in 1986, forgetting how great dramas, television and books were in that era, it gave me so much pleasure and nostalgic. Considering this book is a sequel, you will learn the storyline fairly quickly, it’s so well written.
If you need a book full of power, glamour, sex and drama, this book is a must.
