De dagen van Glas

De dagen van Glas is het woest meeslepende verhaal van twee bewogen vrouwenlevens, wier paden elkaar kruisen gedurende drie noodlottige dagen ten tijde van het Italiaanse fascisme en het partizanenverzet. Redenta wordt geboren in armoede in 1924, op de dag die het tijdperk van Mussolini inluidt. In haar dorp wordt gefluisterd dat ze het ‘onheil over zich heeft’. Ze beleeft korte momenten van geluk met haar beste vriend Bruno, totdat hij op een dag spoorloos verdwijnt. Op achttienjarige leeftijd wordt ze door haar ouders uitgehuwelijkt aan de eenogige officier ‘Glas’, een sadistische fascist. Ondertussen groeit Iris op in een naburig dorp in betere omstandigheden. Ze vertrekt naar de stad en wordt hopeloos verliefd op de partizaan Diaz, bij wiens verzetsgroep ze zich aansluit. Wanneer ze hoort dat de fascisten haar familie op gruwelijke wijze hebben omgebracht, zint ze op wraak.

Secrets in the Little Irish Village

Grace Kelly can't escape the draws of Emerald Bay; the sweeping cliffs, the sparkling sea... and her gorgeous new flatmate. The problem is, she has to keep him a secret from her family. And she isn't the only one in the village with something to hide this summer... Grace really needs someone to help cover the rent for her London flat, but Christopher Dorrance? Everyone in the little Irish village of Emerald Bay knows about the feud between their families, though no one knows how it started. But, both being in a tight spot, they try and make it work, swearing to tell no one back home. Until a mutual friend and her son in the bay are left homeless after a storm. Grace and Christopher must head back to Ireland to help... together. As they flesh out their idea to raise money for their friend with a village charity concert, Chris's blue eyes light up. Even though they have to hide out for every planning session, and after all her father has said about the Dorrances, Grace can't believe how kind he is. Soon sparks are flying as they laugh together, chasing dairy cows from a field to set up the stage. Could Chris be more than just a flatmate? But their hopes that a good cause will soften the hostility between their dads are dashed. The two men still argue constantly. And with a happy future for their friend depending on the concert running smoothly, the truth behind the feud threatens to come out and destroy everything...
