On the Side of Good

A thrilling nineteenth-century historical saga of love, war and loss as Poland struggles for freedom from Russian domination.

On the Side of Good is Book One of a pan-European trilogy charting the fortunes of the Samojarski dynasty. In 1813 Teofil Samojarski returns from the Napoleonic Wars to Sarenki, his run-down spa in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, and sets about its development. The story follows his own fortunes and those of his children, Julek and Franciszka, as they embark on their separate lives across a Europe replete with religious conflicts, passions and romance.
