Betrayal is in their blood . . . When Anna and Therese's father walked out on their mother, the Calvert family was shattered. Now that he's deceased, his carefully crafted plans are set to unravel their lives all over again. After their mother died, the two sisters were sent to live at the Blessed Sacrament Convent. Anna rebelled and escaped to the real world, while Therese remained devoted to a life of duty and worship. Until, one day, the mysterious and seductive gardener Francis takes up residence at the convent. While the nuns are besotted with his charm and handiwork, Anna is less than convinced. Shortly after Francis's arrival, eerie and ominous occurrences begin.

A new find for me
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I just finished the audiobook for "Seeking Sanctuary", and had to drive around for an extra hour last night as I waited to find out what happened at the end! It was the audio equivalent of a gripping page turner. It's a bit slow in the beginning, but I had a long drive, and just kept listening. The novel builds splendidly with a slow sense of menace, and eventually I just couldn't wait for the end. Very nice character development, etc. I have started searching for more fyfield novels, and not just for the long car trips.
Great Read

In my search for quality, lesser known crime and suspense writers, I came across this novel by Frances Fyfield. This novel is written in a sophisticated style and will satisty readers who enjoy suspense novels but are tired of the production line novels written by better known writers. This book will especially appeal to someone with knowledge of the Roman Catholic Church - its doctrine and impact on children raised in a highly religious household. The pace is quick, with tension throughout, and clever twists and turns. The ending has its surprises and leaves the reader with much to ponder. I will definitely read more of Ms. Fyfield's books
