Description

MYSTERY ROMANCE CONFLICT Without warning, Virginia Pearson breaks her engagement to academic Philip Stevenson to enter a convent. She says she has an irresistible calling. Philip is devastated. He slides into depression, too much drink, and a series of short-term relationships. Virginia makes friends with the beautiful self-effacing Aine O’Riordan who enters the convent at the same time. It is January 1957. Strange inexplicable happenings torment the sensitive and withdrawn Aine. Virginia tries to comfort her, but Aine’s anxiety forces her out of the convent. She leaves Virginia behind to deal with an atmosphere of foreboding that infects the life of the convent. (Descent into Hades: A Spiritual Journey, book 3 of the Conciliar series relates what happens to Aine.) Virginia, now Sister Agnes, is suspicious of fellow postulant Margaret McGuigan, now Sister Catherine, and her manipulative ways. Catherine must have a role in the communal infection. Agnes barely suppresses her antagonism towards her through their religious training to their university course in 1962. But the privilege of attending university brings fresh problems for Sister Agnes. Philosophy lecturer Philip Stevenson leads her tutorial group. They realize their relationship has not ended, despite Agnes’s supreme efforts to keep Philip at bay. The dark events in the convent, the bullying on campus, the conflict with furtive, manipulative Sister Catherine, and her love for Philip have her rushing toward a crisis in which she acts out of character – with possible disastrous results. The CONCILIAR SERIES will consist of six connected but stand-alone stories. The themes of the ‘Goddess’, neo-paganism, the occult and Gnosticism run through the stories. The Second Vatican Council and the cultural revolution of the 1960s and 1970s (1965-1975) form the background. The author attempts to recreate the atmosphere of the times. The first book in the series was TIMES OF DISTRESS, the Second book, FEELINGS DIE NOT IN SILENCE, and the third, DESCENT INTO HADES: A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY. The fourth book, COUNTERCULTURE DREAMS is due late 2022.
