Product Description

Product Description

From the #1 bestselling author in Suspense/Mystery/Thriller/Action/Adventure,  Mens' Adventure,
& War, Faith Mortimer comes The Seeds of Time, the first part to The Crossing

Praise for The Seeds of Time
This is a story of romance, bravery, determination, survival, heartbreak
and joy, all poignantly and convincingly conveyed. Richard's compelling
desire to discover the horror of his reticent father's experiences
bring with it regrets and touching recollections of his relationship
with him. All perfectly blended, well balanced and served up with
Faith's usual clarity. There is a clue in the title--Book 1 indicates
there's a Book 2--and there's a gentle little teaser to tempt you on.

"Another
incredible story from Faith Mortimer riddled with suspense, intrigue
and action. There are not enough words to express how much I love her work. Just when you think the characters have no way out, the twists
take the book in a whole new direction. LOVE IT!!


This intensely romantic yet realistic action and adventure novel spans two generations and the unimaginable gulf between the Second World War and the present.

When Englishman Richard Barker suffers a devastating loss he learns to come to terms with his grief. He is helped by two beautiful women, newly discovered quiet and smouldering American, Sorrel and the tempestuous and wilful, Miranda an old flame from long ago.

While Richard is battling with his feelings, by chance he enters into the dark, often surreal world of his dead father's past life spent during the Second World War. It is Sorrel's Grandfather, an American Air Force pilot, who contacts Richard with some intriguing news which helps Richard to his senses.

Richard lives in a world that is sometimes as tragic as A Farewell to Arms and as sensuous as The English Patient. His story and that of his father are crafted from the ruins of war and the indestructibility of love. The action is non-stop, the locations are intriguing and the characters are appealing. There is tension, romance and harrowing escapes all woven within a story that captures the imagination and keeps the reader guessing until the very end.

Will Richard find inner peace and love?

Quite different to her other works in the murder mystery genre, Seeds of Time, is a brilliantly crafted historical novel that skillfully spans two generations. A powerful and emotional read that yet again demonstrates Faith Mortimer's talent as a relatively new author.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book. 24 Feb 2013

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I found it incredibly moving at times. I felt the storyline was very good and Faith Mortimer's descriptive style of writing added much interest to the book. I found the World War 11 sections were so thought provoking and there must have been a lot of research into this subject. I wholeheartedly recommend this book and I am looking forward to Part 2 of the story. I will continue to read more books by Faith Mortimer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Faith best book. 3 July 2012
By Nick B

I have read The Crossing and thought that you really got to feel the pain and hardship that Billy suffered in the POW camp after his capture.

Faith asked me to read The Seeds of Time, which is a rewritten of The Crossing. I was a little hesitant because I already knew the story and thought how can you better a gripping story. I was worried that the changes in the story by adding more chapters you might lose the passion of the story.

Wow and I mean WOW! I should not have worried because the new chapters and the changes have made it a more powerful story. I really felt that I was there with Billy and Nat in the POW camp. I also like how the book ends; you just want the next book so that you can carry on with the story.
Wel done Faith xx
