A young prostitute and drug addict walks into a church to get out of the weather, and her life is changed; a story of redemption, renewal, loss and new love
Rose-Marie is a shy girl who has been raised in a very restrictive home and is studying hard in hopes of finding a freer life for herself. She's never even kissed a man before she's introduced to Ted Wilson... who is the sort of man girls like and trust, but don't see as relationship material.
Delia is the woman who distracted Dulcie so she could be abducted. Wracked with guilt, she went to the Hansons to beg forgiveness before giving herself up to the Police. This is what happened to her... and her husband.
The outline of this story was a gift from a reader. An unlikely hero pulls a child from a car wreck... Dulcie becomes involved in a story that spans more than two years.
A rare snow in Maldon, an abandoned baby, and a waif found and rescued. Stands alone, but more meaningful if you're familiar with the last Dulcie and Jenni stories.
He's a burn-out, and goes to live in a boat. Will he follow the wild geese, or will he find the peace he lost? Dulcie is a secondary character in this one, but an important one. / (Reviews)
Helen has been 'traded in for a younger model'. A chance encounter in a diner with a man young enough to be her son changes her life. This story is the result of a suggestion from a reader that I should reverse my usual pattern!
This episode follows 'The Older Woman'. Sharlene Smith, one of the teenagers from the Ashcroft Centre, needs a foster home. Helen - eight months pregnant - is approached.
Joe Hancock works as an agency nurse in the winter, and as a sailor during the season. He's an occasional attender at church, but then he finds an unconscious girl on the way home in the small hours of the morning. Life will never be quite the same again. The rape/non-consent is off stage and not detailed.
Dulcie's mother appears out of the blue, and another mother is looking for something she doesn't understand. Two women, twenty years apart... Once more, Dulcie needs al her faith and trust in God to find answers.
Well, how do you think our Dulcie might respond to a witch? You may - probably will - be surprised, but I won't spoil the surprise. This tale links to 'Pursuit of Peace'. enjoy!
