Beskrivelse
There is enough turmoil and misery in the world already, and I have no intention of adding to it - hence 'A Smooth Ride Down to Faro' - no violence, no strong language, no witchcraft.Be intrigued, laugh, cry - even get annoyed! Love some of the characters, loathe others. But don't assume anything - you'll probably be wrong! Follow the twists and turns, and expect the unexpected. Be uplifted as you read, and restore your faith in human feelings, loyalty and morality.This is volume one of The Calbury Chronicles, a series of novels following the lives of two people who fall in love with each other but, thinking that any lasting relationship is impossible, they go their separate ways. The story opens in 1988 when Ben and Belinda Jackson are flying to Portugal for a short holiday. The flight is delayed and Bens' thoughts drift back to 1983 when, as an eighteen-year-old graduate from Calbury Grammar School, he said 'goodbye' to a woman he promised never to forget - his former Physics Teacher.Meanwhile, in the background, rumbles another story of unreciprocated love, arson and cover-ups. But who is guilty, and can anything be proved?Enjoy the ride!
