Book excerpt: It is early 1939 and the end of the Spanish Civil War as Maria, heavily pregnant and with a tiny son to care for, frantically flees Franco's fascist forces across the border dividing the colourful Basque countries of Spain and France. Tragedy and an ancient cycle of murder and revenge stalk her every step and the birth of her second child is traumatic. A moment of hope for freedom and a future in France is all but dashed by the Nazi occupation and the tumultuous and divisive aftermath of WW2. Inevitably, Maria and her young family are drawn into the inescapable truths of their genetic background; and as her young daughter matures into the kind of woman that Maria could never be, they both begin to understand how the events of the distant past still determine their destinies. .... ......
