Vietnamese-American Victoria Nguyen, seventeen, flees to England with a powerful secret…and a determined senator on her trail.
Madeleine Seymour, a history professor, and her husband, Jack, a retired wine broker, travel from San Francisco to London to purchase property for a children’s home—and find much more than land at stake.

Jack's haunted by fears of the past. Madeleine holds a powerful secret. And Rachelle is running away.
Book Two of the Trilogy
For the last seventeen years, her husband, Jack, and son, Justin, have been Madeleine Seymour's world. Then, during Justin's wedding reception, Jack collapses. Jack needs surgery, and he insists it be performed by the doctor who perfected the procedure. But the doctor isn't reachable, and time is running out.
Dr. Rachelle DuPres, plagued by memories of a deadly failure, flees America to search out her roots in her ancestral village in Provence, France. But as she tries to locate the graves of her Catholic uncles and her Jewish parents, will their roles in the Holocaust bring more angst--or the answers she so desperately seeks?
Pilgrimage

Madeleine Seymour will never forget what happened twenty-two years ago in her own backyard. She’s still riddled with guilt.
Hoping to banish the nightmares that haunt her and steal her peace, she travels to Italy with her husband, Jack, on a pilgrimage. As a history professor, Madeleine is fascinated by the churches they visit...and what they learn about the lives of the martyrs.
But can anything bring her the peace that her soul longs for?
