Book Description
The charming city of Campbell sits amid bustling urban neighbors in California's "Silicon Valley." For many years known as the "Orchard City," Campbell is still very much a small town clinging fiercely to its identity. Benjamin Campbell founded a hay and grain farm on what is now downtown Campbell in 1851. Shrewdly selling off one of his acres for $5 for a railroad depot, Campbell soon subdivided his farm. The resulting town evolved into a rail center for shipping fruit across the continent and around the globe. Campbell Fruit Growers' Union, a large co-operative, sent apricots and prunes to dry yards that were at one time the largest in the world, and canneries like the J.C. Ainsley Packing Company and Geo. E. Hyde & Company became local giants.

Book Description
In this richly layered debut novel, Cate Campbell introduces the wealthy Benedict family and takes us behind the grand doors of their mansion, Benedict Hall. There, family and servants alike must face the challenges wrought by World War I--and the dawn of a new age brimming with scandal, intrigue, and social change. Seattle in 1920 is a city in flux. Horse-drawn carriages share the cobblestone streets with newfangled motor cars. Modern girls bob their hair and show their ankles, cafés defy Prohibition by serving dainty teacups of whisky to returning vets--and the wartime boom is giving way to a depression. Even within the Benedicts' majestic Queen Anne home, life is changing--above and below stairs. Margot, the Benedicts' free-spirited daughter, struggles to succeed as a physician despite gender bias--and personal turmoil. The household staff, especially longtime butler Abraham Blake, have always tried to protect Margot from her brother Preston's cruel streak. Yet war has altered Preston too--not for the better. And when a chance encounter brings a fellow army officer into the Benedict fold, Preston's ruthlessness is triggered to new heights. An engineer at the fledgling Boeing company, Frank Parrish has been wounded body and soul, and in Margot, he senses a kindred spirit. But their burgeoning friendship and Preston's growing wickedness will have explosive repercussions for everyone at Benedict Hall--rich and poor, black and white--as Margot dares to follow her own path, no matter the consequences.

Book Description
I told Tamsin the synopsis of my stories was always going to be a bit of a problem. If I wanted to publish my writings, my blog is not a novel but a collection of short stories. My stories have no real beginning, no middle, no end and no protagonist. So what's the synopsis going to be about? Phaedra, that's Phaedra Gascoigne, butted in and said "what about Dakota Pugsley from the fourth? She's a trouble maker and so is Madeline Brown. There is your pair of protagonists straight away". Tamsin pointed out "there is the love aspect Bridgette; like Nathan, the leader of the folk group 'The Sheriff's Men'. He's in love with that girl from the St Joan of Arc Roman Catholic School in Rickmansworth." "Oh, then there was 'A Love Made in Heaven' the story within a story. Remember that one Bridgette where Graham gets killed but he gets to meet his Miss Angel in heaven?" Candice said "well just say you are writing about the day to day events, the trials and tribulations of young girls and stuff at Denham Hall and leave it at that".

Book Description
Framed in the context of a love story and its spiritual aftermath twenty years later, this tragicomic adventure reveals social implications of the cosmic order through the strange “geophysics” of a very strange man. The story will take you from the majestic shores of the Andaman Sea to the ancient temples of Malta, and into the ridiculous trials of forty nationalities striving to keep a ramshackle oil field running in the Libyan Sahara. It will take you on an incredible journey up the Nile in a supreme effort to preempt a terrorist plot. And this madcap action will give you a glimpse into the meaning of the pyramids and Stonehenge. It will show you how the biosphere has evolved to give us three minds, not one. It will show you how to outreach your birth and your death and transcend the whole of natural history. It will make you happy and sad and wonder profoundly. It will entertain and excite you while making you think as never before.
