Opis

Jean-Luc Morrisson is a gifted and intelligent man with a strong desire to help others. Following a fateful trip to south-western France, he is mystified by the revelation of a subliminal memory, which quickly becomes an integral part of his life. Tragedy strikes and his world is turned upside down, together with the lives of dozens of other people around him. And beneath the cleverly crafted layers of his ensuing story lies another - one of antiquity and inheritance; and a much sought-after treasure. This catapults Jean-Luc into a dark world of evil and endless subterfuge as one scheming family mercilessly tries one corrupt tactic after another to procure this mysterious heirloom. 2,000 years previously, in Caesarea, the inhabitants are dominated by a powerful but cruel invading force. Despite the odds, one man manages to carve a new life for himself away from the turmoil of his homeland. He spreads the teachings of his friend whilst facing death with a quiet dignity that astounds everyone he meets. How these two worlds eventually meet is gently (and expertly) unravelled throughout this incredible tale of love, families, cultural aspirations, hope and faith. Set against the beautiful French backdrop of south-western France, and filled with rustic Basque charm The Orphans of Dougeres is a story which will stay with you forever.
