More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Lily has a choice, although at first she does not understand what that choice entails. What she believes to be an idyllic holiday in the mountains of Mallorca is not all it seems. Why is it that she, a young twenty-first century barrister, is being asked to represent the soul of Eve, First Created Woman, Mother of Mankind, at a trial in which that soul is to be the Defendant? And why is it that Harry, Lily's husband, is unable to find his wife? Through her professional and personal exploration of the concept of choice, and the implications of free will, Lily learns about Eve and also about herself. But is it too late to save Eve? And is it too soon to save Lily? Both women, although set apart by generations in time, share a common goal - the desire to make the morally right choice and to have the strength to bear its consequences. If you have ever questioned the concept of choice and moral responsibility, or considered the possibility of an afterlife, or queried the relationship between good and evil, then this is the book for you. As the philosophical mystery unfolds and the story draws to a conclusion, you will find yourself turning again to page one. Read it if you wish to be uplifted. The choice is yours.
