When Shadows Come Home

The beautiful widow, Maria Angela Alvarez Candelaria, attains the pinnacle of happiness available to an early eighteen century woman: wealth, travel, adventure, prestige, a devoted husband and a beautiful family. These are fulfillments few women of her era dare to dream and she has garnered them all. But suddenly, a new interest unexpectedly burst into her life. It is a new love and one that threatens all the achievements that have brought her the pronounced level of happiness that she enjoys.

As Eve took that taste of the forbidden fruit, Angela abandons herself to a decadent fantasy.

The romance and action introduced in the fictional account, Shadows Under the Sun, continues in this sequel. The lives of Angela and Alejandro Luis De La Voca Rivera once again cross each other to face the challenges and pleasures of their contemporary lives.

A distinct contrast is present in their approach to life. One adheres to a service tradition of purpose to life, and the other, a self-indulgent approach. Their differing styles clash as their lives once again intertwine amidst the corruption and ills of their social ruling class.
