Two swans

When tension stews again in his hometown, it becomes clear to Pierre de Lestang, a young and headstrong Huguenot that he must keep his promise. Determined, he swears to protect his family and to take them to safety: to find freedom.

As he embarks on his journey, nothing stands in Pierres way - not until he realises that his plight comes with a heavy cost, jeopardising the very ones he holds most dear. Soon, he plunges into a past brimming with distressing discoveries. He learns that his friends and relatives are not who they seem to be.

Still, the freedom-seeker clings onto faith and hope, but drawn into a web of unbearable truths, he finds himself locked in his shell, not knowing whom to trust anymore, not even his own heart, for he fears he is about to lose it to a girl he must not love.

Linda de Létang - Born in Jakarta, Indonesia, Linda is from a multi-cultural background; Dutch and French on her mothers side, Chinese and Javanese on her fathers. Linda was two when her parents moved to Singapore where she was raised with her four siblings. At school, Linda remembers day-dreaming during lessons, looking out the windows, imagining herself in a fairytale world of enchantments, bravehearts and talking animals.

Linda now lives with her husband, splitting her time between her town-house in the suburban area of Paris and at the countryside in the middle of France. When she is not reading or writing, you will find her busy in her vegetable plot, or in the kitchen. Linda also loves travelling and hiking. She hopes to resume the Camino de Santiago walk - both physically and mentally challenging, she finds - all the way across Spain. Linda has three grown-up children and two grandchildren.
